Step 5. When you are done adding links, press the [Save Data] key.
Step 6. If the network that this node is on contains ANY internetwork gateway (either full or half) press the [Neighbor Gateways] key and proceed to the section in this chapter called “To Configure Neighbor Gateways.”
Step 7. If the network that this node is on contains NO internetwork gateways or if you have already configured gateways for this system, press the [Config Directry] key and proceed to the section in this chapter titled “To Configure X.25 Virtual Circuits.”

IP address
IP address is an address of a node on a network. An IP address has two parts: a network portion and a node portion. The network portion must be the same for all nodes on an X.25 network; the node portion must be unique for all nodes on an X.25 network.
There are two methods of entering an internet protocol (IP) address within NMMGR:
1.Enter the fully qualified IP address (for example, Class C, C 192.191.191 009).
OR
2.Enter only the network (nnn) and node (xxx) portions of the IP address as four positive integers between 0 and 255 separated by periods or blanks (for example, 15.123.44.98).
You need not enter the following items as NMMGR will fill these in:
•Class A, B, C
•Leading zeros for the network and node portion of the IP address.
