Chapter 6. DTE Port Configuration
Slip Protocol
The Slip Protocol is an asynchronous protocol which encapsu-
lates and routes IP traffic to and from a SLIP device. Special
control characters are used to define frame boundaries. See
Figure 6-11 for the Slip menu tree.
Routing
Routing tables are formed through a combination of RIP and
static route entries. If RIP is used, all routing tables are gener-
ated dynamically. With static routing, the user is able to force
relationships. Static route tables are configured through the IP
Routing selection in the CONFIG menu.
Static routing requires additional configuration (see the chapter IP
Routing for more information).
Physical Layer Options
Interface Type (CONN)
Select the connector type for the DTE interface. The choices are
V.35 and RS-232.
Asynchronous Bit Rate (BIT RATE)
Set the operating speed of the DTE interface to match the
connected device. The selections are 2400 bps, 4800 bps, 9600
bps, 19.2 kbps, and 38.4 kbps.
Data Bits
Set the byte length to match the connected asynchronous device.
The choices are 7 and 8.
Parity
Select even, odd, or no parity information. Set to match the
connected asynchronous device.
Stop Bits
Select one or two stop bits. Set to match the connected asyn-
chronous device.
