Parameters Possible Values Description
Default Gateway
Setting
Select this parameter to set the Default Gateway configuration
(see Figure 4-4). The default gateway is the address to which
frames are sent, if no other address is defined in the routing
table.
The default gateway can be an IP address or a WAN interface.
If you choose to use an IP address, enter the address of the
router, which will deliver the frames. Specifying an IP address
for the default gateway is done with shared media, such as LAN
interface. If you choose to use a WAN interface, the connection
to the router is point-to-point. Choose by interface and enter
interface/DLCI number (for Frame Relay).
Warning: It is very important to obtain the correct parameters
from the system administrator or ISP. The most common
problem when establishing an IP connection is incorrect
configuration of the IP parameters and Default Gateway. Do not
try to guess these parameters.
E1/T1 Settings Prompts to perform advanced configuration on the main link
settings – E1 or T1, depending on your unit. By entering YES
you are sent into the Advanced Configuration menu. For more
information, refer to Chapter 5.
