Deleting an AURP partner

To delete an AURP partner, select Delete Partner in the AURP Setup screen and press Return to display a table of existing partners.

Use the Up and Down Arrow keys to select an AURP partner, then press Return to delete it. Press the Escape key to exit without deleting a partner.

Receiving AURP connections

To control the acceptance of incoming AURP tunnels, select Accept Connections From and choose Anyone or Configured Partners Only from the pop-up menu. If you choose Anyone, all incoming AURP connections will be accepted.

The more secure option is Configured Partners Only, which only accepts connections from recognized AURP partners (the ones you have set up).

Configuring AURP Options

In the AURP Setup screen, Select AURP Options and go to the AURP Options screen. Using AURP can cause a problem when two networks, one local and one remote, have the same network number. This may cause network routing ambiguities than can result in routing errors.

Select Tickle Pkt Rqst Interval (HH:MM:SS) and set the timer to indicate how often a tickle or ‘are you still there’ packet will be sent to the remote AppleTalk Network.

The AURP tickle timer is a parameter that you can set anywhere between 0 and 100 hours. This parameter tells the AURP partners when to send out an AURP tickle packet. If this value is set to 0, the Netopia R2020 will never send out a tickle packet. Tickle packets verify that the remote router is working. The minimum tickle interval is 90 seconds. The maximum tickle interval setting is 99:59:59 (100 hours), which is the recommendation for small networks.
