IP Subnet mask

IP Broadcast Address

RV: Use the WAN/IP screen to set these parameters.

CL: Use the interface(misc) and ip(set) commands.

Suggested for IP

These parameters help supply information about the segment that the port is connected to. With this information, routing can take place.

IP RIP (Routing Information Protocol) and/or

IP Static Routes

IP Default Router

RV: Use the WAN/IP screen to set RIP, and the IP Static Routing Window (All/IP) to set static routes and a default router.

CL: Use interface(misc) and then ip flags(set) to set RIP, and ip route(add) to add static routes. User interface(misc) and ip(set) to set the default router.

IPX Protocol

Required for IPX

Frame Relay operation requires that the WAN port is set to be a “numbered interface.” This means that the port (and thus the Frame Relay network) must have an IPX network number.

IPX numbered interface

IPX Network Number

RV: Use the WAN/IPX screen.

CL: Use interface(misc) and then ipx(set).

Suggested for IPX

The settings above are all that is generally required for IPX operation over Frame Relay.
