LAN-to-LAN Routing (Detailed Setup)

The following section gives details on configuring routing from the command line. To attach to the command line software, see

Connecting to the Command Line in Chapter 2.

Configuring the Port

Ports used for LAN-to-LAN routing need to be configured as Network ports.

Step 1 - Port Type

The port must be configured as a network port with one of the following options. Dial In, Dial Out, Dial In & Dial Out (twoway), or Hardwired. Use the following command:

set s<port #> network <dialin dialout twoway hardwired>

Hardwired: Setting a port to Hardwired tells the NETServer’s operating software that you are establishing a synchronous connection via a serial cable. Since s0 is the only serial port, this is the only port for which the hardwired setting is valid.

If you configure s0 as Hardwired, set the following parameters and go to Step 3. (For an explanation, see Ports Table, Hardwired Port Parameters in Chapter 10).
