LocalTalk setup

For instructions on making the physical connections for LocalTalk, see “Connecting to a LocalTalk network” on page 4-5.

In the AppleTalk Setup screen, select LocalTalk Setup and press Return. The LocalTalk Setup screen appears.

	LocalTalk Setup
LocalTalk Enabled:	On
LocalTalk Zone Name:	Unnamed
LocalTalk Net Number:	33126

Use this screen to set up the LocalTalk Port Routing attributes.

■If you are using LocalTalk with the Netopia R5000 Series Router, select LocalTalk Enabled and make sure LocalTalk is set to On, which is the default.

Note: Since the LocalTalk connector attaches to the Auxiliary port on the router, that port will no longer be available for a third external modem.

■Select LocalTalk Zone Name and enter a new or existing zone name.

Note: Your LocalTalk network may already have a zone and network number in place. For the Netopia R5000 Series Router’s LocalTalk port to be part of your LocalTalk network, it must have a network number and zone name that matches the values in use on the LocalTalk network.
