Chapter 8. IP Routing
Gateway IP Address (GW IP ADD)
Enter the Gateway IP address. If an IP packet with an unknown IP address is received, the FSU sends it to the Gateway (which is a router or another FRAD).
Gateway Port (GW PORT)
Enter the port from which the gateway can be reached.
Gateway DLCI (GW DLCI)
If the gateway port is set to Network, this parameter identifies the virtual circuit used to reach the gateway.
Transmit ARP Requests (TX ARP)
This parameter enables the transmit portion of the network port inverse ARP protocol. If enabled, inverse ARP messages will be sent to every DLCI assigned to the network port each ARP refresh time period and inverse ARP responses will be gener- ated.
Process Received ARP Packets (RX ARP)
This parameter enables the receive portion of the network port inverse ARP protocol. If enabled, all inverse ARP messages received are used to associate peer IP addresses with DLCI values.
ARP Refresh Time (ARP REF)
Determine how often an inverse ARP request is sent to every
DLCI assigned to the network port.
ARP is used in conjunction with RIP to dynamically resolve IP routes and should be enabled if RIP is enabled.
