Highest Node Number (decimal) (1-1023): [32]

Router Level (Level1, Level2, DEC Level1, DEC Level2):

[ Level2]

Highest Area (decimal) (1-63): [63]

Node Address (area.node): (63.32)

The above con®guration ®elds are con®gured with the following considerations:

Highest Node Number

Is the highest node address in the router's area. Setting it excessively high will affect the routers efficiency and require excess storage.

Router Level

Identi®es whether the router is a Level 1 or Level 2 router. A Level 1 router keeps track of all nodes in its area and does not care about nodes outside its area. A Level 2 router routes traffic between areas.

Normally you should select Level1 or Level2 with the following exception: select DEC Level1 or DEC Level2 only when this router must communicate over X.25 networks with routers conforming to the DEC X.25 standard.
