When network number remapping is enabled, you must choose a safe range of network numbers as a destination for the remapping. A safe range of network numbers does not intersect your local AppleTalk network’s range of network numbers.

■To choose a destination range for the remapping, select From under Remap into Range and enter a starting value. Then select To and enter an ending value. Make sure the range you choose is large enough to accommodate all expected incoming AURP network numbers.

■To improve the efficiency of remapping network numbers into a safe range, select Cluster Remote Networks and toggle it to Yes. This setting takes any number of remote networks being remapped and causes them to be remapped into a continuous range.

■To override the AppleTalk maximum limit of 15 hops, select Enable Hop-Count Reduction and toggle it to Yes. Hosts on a local AppleTalk network will then “see” AppleTalk destinations across the IP tunnel as being only one hop away.

AppleTalk allows a packet up to 15 hops (going through 15 AppleTalk routers) to reach its destination. Packets that must reach destinations more than 15 hops away will not succeed; therefore, tunneling from one large AppleTalk network to another could exceed that limit. In such a case, hop count reduction enables full network to network communication.

You have finished configuring AURP.
