Network Protocols and Bindings

The following sections outline the steps necessary to configure the Network Protocols and Bindings so the interfaces can be used with the LAN and WAN connections just established.

Configuration of protocols and bindings must be completed prior to using the Emulex software.

Configuring Protocol Parameters

1)From the Internetworking Configuration menu, select Protocols and press <Enter>.

Figure 6-8 Internetworking Configuration

2) The Protocol Configuration menu is displayed.

Figure 6-9 Protocol Configuration

3)From the Protocol Configuration menu, select all desired protocols needed for support over the WAN link. Each protocol presents a unique menu for its configuration. You should accept the default settings.
