Generic Service UDP Relay

UDP relay may be configured for generic services. Generic services may include applications
such as Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP), Domain Name System (DNS), IEN-116 Name
Server. You will need to know the well-known UDP port number if you want to configure
these services.

Generic Services Menu

To configure a relay for a generic service, on the command line for the UDP Relay Configura-
tion screen, enter 4. A menu similar to the following displays:
4) +Generic Services Menu
41) +Modify existing Generic Services Menu
42) +Delete existing Generic Service Menu
43) +Add new Generic Service Menu
Submenu Command {Item/?/Help/Quit/Redraw} {Redraw} :

Services Menu, enter 43. A screen similar to the following displays:
43) +Add new Generic Service Menu
431) Description of new Service :
432) Forwarded port : UNSET
433) Next-hop Address {list/add/delete} : UNSET
434) Forward to VLANs {list/add/delete} : UNSET
Command {Item/?/Help/Quit/Done/Redraw} {Redraw} :
The required parameters are Forwarded port, and either Next-hop Address or Forward to
VLANs. A description of the generic service is optional.
The Done command on this screen saves the current changes but does not activate the relay.
The relay will be reinitialized and activated with the changes when Save is entered on the
UDP Relay Configuration screen.
Description of new Service
A description of the service you want to configure.
Forwarded port
The corresponding well-known UDP port number for the service. For example, TFTP uses port
69. The default is UNSET. When you set this parameter, the relevant port number displays.
Next-hop Address
Use this parameter to list, add, or delete the server address(es) to which the NBNS UDP relay
will forward. The default is UNSET. Up to 8 addresses may be configured. The value redis-
plays as SET when at least one address is configured. You can list, add, or delete addresses
by entering 433=l, 433=a, or 433=d on the command line.
