Chapter 6 - Basic Configuration Guide

AppleTalk Protocol

Required for AppleTalk

Frame Relay operation requires that the WAN interface is set to be a “numbered interface.” This means that the interface (and thus the Frame Relay network) must have an AppleTalk network number and the interface must have an AppleTalk node number.

AppleTalk numbered interface

AppleTalk Network Number

AppleTalk Node Number

AppleTalk Zone Name

CV: Use the AppleTalk Routing: WAN Dialog Box.

TB: Use configure and set the Numbered, NetLower, and DefZone keywords in the AppleTalk WAN 0 (and/or WAN 1) section.

Suggested for AppleTalk

The settings above are all that is generally required for AppleTalk oper- ation over Frame Relay.

DECnet Protocol

Required for DECnet

DECnet must be turned on globally, and turned on for a particular port, in order to be used.

WAN interfaces which are set for Frame Relay operation do not need any additional parameters set in order to function.

Set DECnet on (globally, and for this port)

CV: Use the DECnet Routing Dialog Box (under Global/DECnet Routing) and the DECnet: WAN Dialog Box.

TB: Use configure and set the Mode keyword in the DECnet WAN 0 (and/or WAN 1) section.

Note: Setting DECnet on for any port with the command line also vsets DECnet on globally. In CompatiView you must set a global parameter and a port-specific parameter.
