Table 3-15. Communication Port Options (4 of 4)

Link Protocol

Possible Settings: PPP, SLIP

Default Setting: PPP

Specifies the link-layer protocol to be used. Only in effect when the COM port is configured as a network communication link (Port Use option is set to Net Link).

Display Conditions ± This option only appears when Port Use is set to Net Link.

PPP± Point-to-Point Protocol.

SLIP ± Serial-Line Internet Protocol.

RIP

Possible Settings: None, Proprietary, Standard_out

Default Setting: None

Specifies which Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is used to enable routing of management data between devices.

Display Conditions ± This option only appears when Port Use is set to Net Link.

None ± No routing is used.

Proprietary ± A proprietary variant of RIP version 1 is used to communicate routing information only between devices to enable routing of IP traffic.

Standard_out ± The device will send standard RIP messages to communicate routing information about other FrameSaver units in the network. Standard RIP messages received on this link are ignored.

NOTE: The router must be configured to receive RIP on the port connected to the

COM port, configured as the management interface (e.g., Cisco:

config-t, router RIP, int serialx, IP RIP Receive version 1, ctl-z WR).

To create this management interface, make sure that Node or COM port IP

Information has been set up (Configuring Node IP Information).
