ADTRAN 550 user manual Subnet Mask, FAR-END Address

Chapter 9. Router

SUBNET MASK	Write security: 2; Read security: 5
	Defines the subnet mask applied to the address defined for this link. If the
	subnet mask is unnumbered, leave as 0.0.0.0.
IARP	Write security: 2; Read security: 5
	The Inverse ARP (IARP) field is only present when this is a frame-relay net-
	work interface. The ATLAS 550 always responds to Inverse ARP requests
	with its IP address for the requested DLCI.
ENABLE	The ATLAS 550 sends Inverse ARP packets in order to determine the IP ad-
	dress on the other end of the virtual circuit. If the Inverse ARP packet is re-
	sponded to, a route is placed in the IP route table. When this field is set to
	ENABLE, the ATLAS 550 dynamically sends Inverse ARP packets to deter-
	mine the IP address on the other end of the virtual circuit. When an Inverse
	ARP packet is not responded to, a route is placed in the IP route table.
DISABLE	The ATLAS 550 responds to Inverse ARP requests with its IP address for the
	requested DLCI. If set to DISABLE, the ATLAS 550 does not generate Inverse
	ARP request packets. In this case, the FAR-ENDADDRESS parameter may be
	used to statically assign a route address (see the following section, Far-End
	Address).
FAR-END ADDRESS	Write security: 2; Read security: 5
	The Far-End IP Address field is only present for frame-relay network inter-
	faces, and it is only selectable when Inverse ARP is disabled. The IP address
	of the device on the other end of the virtual circuit may be specified. A static
	route to the far-end network will be added using the interface Subnet-Mask
	if nonzero. If 0.0.0.0 has been specified for the Subnet-Mask, a default subnet
	mask is used based on the class of the Far-End Address. (See also the previ-
	ous section, Subnet Mask.)
MTU	Read security: 5
	Defines maximum number of bytes in a datagram transmitted over this
	interface. (Maximum Transmit Unit)
RIP	Configures routing information protocol (RIP) on this interface.
MODE	Write security: 2; Read security: 5
	Allows RIP to be enabled or disabled on a per-interface basis.Turn off ( OFF)
	if you do not want to enable this feature.
	TX ONLY
	RIP advertisements are periodically transmitted, but are not listened to on
	this virtual circuit.
	RX ONLY
	RIP advertisements are not transmitted on this virtual circuit, but they are
	listened to.
