Route Number

If the link between the switch and the CMS

 

 

 

 

computer is a dedicated link through a hub,

 

 

 

 

you only need to assign one IP route. If you

 

 

 

 

are going through a router, you must set up

 

 

 

 

IP route 1 from the switch to the router, and

 

 

 

 

then set up IP route 2 from the switch to the

 

 

 

 

CMS computer. The example above shows a

 

 

 

 

simple IP route.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Destination Node

This field represents the node name of the

 

 

 

 

destination for this route. You would typically

 

 

 

 

enter the node name for the CMS computer

 

 

 

 

or a router, depending on your configuration.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Gateway

Enter the node name of the gateway by

 

 

 

 

which the destination node is reached for this

 

 

 

 

route. This is either the local C-LAN port or

 

 

 

 

the first intermediate node between the

 

 

 

 

C-LAN port and the final destination. For

 

 

 

 

example, if there were one or more routers

 

 

 

 

between the C-LAN port and the final

 

 

 

 

destination node (the CMS computer), the

 

 

 

 

gateway would be the node name of the first

 

 

 

 

router.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

C-LAN Board

Enter the equipment location of the CLAN

 

 

 

 

circuit pack that provides this route.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Metric

Specifies the complexity of this IP route.

 

 

 

 

Enter

0 if there are no intermediate nodes

 

 

 

 

between the switch C-LAN port and the

 

 

 

 

ethernet port on the CMS computer. A metric

 

 

 

 

value of 1 is used only on a switch that has

 

 

 

 

more than one C-LAN circuit pack installed.

 

 

 

 

See DEFINITY ECS Administration for

 

 

 

 

Network Connectivity for more information

 

 

 

 

about using this field.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Route Type

Specifies whether the route is host or

 

 

 

 

network (default). Use a Host route to get to

 

 

 

 

a specific IP address. Use a Network route to

 

 

 

 

get to a subnet.
