Table 4-9. TCP/IP Screen Options and Defaults

HOST TYPE

The Host Type is used to control IP forwarding. When Host Type is set to gateway, IP
datagrams are allowed being forwarded. When Host Type is set to host, no forwarding is
allowed. For IP forwarding (routing) to work correctly, a route must be creat ed in th e routi ng
table.

DEFAULT IP TYPE

The Default IP Port setting, tells the IMACS 200 where IP packets will be se nt when there is
no matching entry in the routing table. The options are none (no default route used), local
ethernet (SLIP/PPP over DB-9 serial port), wan (wan-1, wan-2, wan-3, wan-4), ipr-fr (IP
Router via Frame Relay) or SA4 (use of the 4kbps channel available for E1 customers).
