3Exit the profile and, at the exit prompt, select the exit and accept option.
To configure the Site B Pipeline unit for a connection to Site A:
1Open the Connection profile in the Pipeline unit for the Site A MAX.
2Set the Station parameter to specify the Pipeline unit’s system name, set the Active
parameter to activate the profile, and specify the desired encapsulation options. For
example:
Ethernet
Connections
Connection profile 1
Station=MAXA
Active=Yes
Encaps=MPP
Encaps options...

Recv PW=localpw
Send PW=remotepw
3Set the Route IP parameter to enable IP routing, and set the LAN Adrs parameter to
specify the IP address and subnet of the MAX unit at Site A:
Route IP=Yes
IP options…
LAN Adrs=10.4.5.1/24
4Exit the profile and, at the exit prompt, select the exit and accept option.
To make the MAX the default route for the Site B Pipeline unit:
1Open the Default profile in the Static Rtes menu in the Site B Pipeline.
2Set the Gateway parameter to specify the MAX unit at the far end of the WAN connection
as the gateway address:
Ethernet
Static Rtes
Default
Name=Default
Active=Yes
Dest=0.0.0/0
Gateway=10.4.5.1
Metric=1
Preference=100

Configuring a numbered interface
In the following example, the MAX unit is a system-based router but supports a numbered
interface for one of its connections. (If you are not familiar with numbered interfaces, see
“Interface-based routing” on page9-6.) The double-headed arrow in Figure 9-14 indicates the
numbered interface for this connection.
