Configuring a Point-to-Point Node

 

Configure a Point-to-Point Network Interface

Type

Enter DD (direct dial) if you always

 

want to call the same host over a dial

 

link. If you choose DD the remote host

 

does not have to be adjacent and other

 

nodes can be accessed through the

 

remote host. Enter SD if you want to

 

call more than one adjacent remote

 

node over a dial link without

 

reconfiguring. If you choose SD, no other

 

remote nodes can be accessed through

 

the remote host; it is an end point in

 

the connection. Enter DC if the link is a

 

leased line, private line, or other

 

non-switched link.
