Chapter 8. Packet Manager
PACKET CNCTS | After packet endpoints are defined, they are connected in the packet con- |
| nects (PACKET CNCTS) map. PACKET CNCTS connects upper layer protocols |
| from packet endpoint to packet endpoint. You can think of it as a dedicated |
| map for virtual ports rather than physical ports. |
FROM: PEP | Write Security: 3; Read Security: 5 |
| Selects one packet endpoint for the packet connection. Packet endpoints |
| created in the packet endpoint configuration are visible on a |
| menu which includes the ROUTER option. Additionally, a router option is |
| available in this |
| router and can be used multiple times within the PACKET CNCTS menu. |
SUBLINK | Write Security: 3; Read Security: 5 |
| If the packet endpoint selected in FROM: PEP supports sublinks, they are |
| available in this menu. In frame relay, this is the PVC from which you are |
| selecting to groom data. |
TO: PEP | Write Security: 3; Read Security: 5 |
| Selects the other packet endpoint for the packet connection. Refer to FROM: |
| PEP for more detail. |
SUBLINK | Write Security: 3; Read Security: 5 |
| If the TO: PEP packet endpoint supports sublinks, the available sublinks are |
| shown within this menu, which includes the ROUTER option. |
PROTOCOL | Write Security: 3; Read Security: 5 |
| Selects the protocols for this packet connection. Selecting the protocols on |
| each individual connection allows the mixing of data from multiple sources |
| onto a single PVC. Available protocols include the following: ALL, IP, |
| PACKET VOICE, SNA - LLC2, SNAP, and TRANSPARENT PROTOCOLS (TBOP |
| and TASYNC). |
Keep in mind the following:
1.If ALL is selected, additional connections from that PVC are not allowed.
2. If ROUTER is selected as one packet endpoint, IP is automatically set as the PROTOCOL.
3.If a TBOP packet endpoint is selected as one packet endpoint, TRANSPARENT is automatically set as the
PROTOCOL.
