Dial-On-Query

 

This field is necessary for your Prestige on the client side LAN. When

[Yes/No]

 

 

set to [Yes], any Get Service SAP or RIP broadcasts coming from the

 

 

 

LAN will trigger your Prestige to make a call to that Remote Node. If it

 

 

 

is set to [No], your Prestige will not make the outgoing call.

 

 

 

 

 

Rem LAN Net #

 

In this field, enter the internal network number of the NetWare server

 

 

 

on the remote side LAN. Your Prestige will create a route to access

 

 

 

this server.

 

 

 

 

 

My WAN Net #

 

In this field, you can type in the WAN network number of the device

[00000000]

 

 

that you are connecting to. This number will be used for negotiation

(default)

 

 

between your Prestige and the remote device. If you leave this field as

 

 

 

 

 

[00000000], your Prestige will select the greater WAN network number

 

 

 

between the two devices.

 

 

 

 

 

Hop Count

 

This field indicates the number of intermediate networks that must be

[1]

 

 

passed through to reach the Remote Node.

(default)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tick Count

 

This field indicates the time-ticks required to reach the Remote Node.

[2] (default)

 

 

 

 

W/D Spoofing

 

This field is used for the Prestige on the server side LAN. Your

 

(min)

 

Prestige can spoof a response to a server’ s WatchDog request after

 

 

 

the connection is dropped. In this field, type in the time (number of

 

 

 

minutes) that you want your Prestige to spoof the WatchDog

 

 

 

response.

 

 

 

 

SAP/RIP Timeout

This field indicates the amount of time that you want your Prestige to

 

(min)

 

maintain the SAP and RIP entries learned from this Remote Node in

 

 

 

its internal tables after the connection has been dropped. If this

 

 

 

information is retained, then your Prestige will not have to get the SAP

 

 

 

information when the line is brought back up. Enter the time (number

 

 

 

of minutes) in this field.

 

 

 

 

Once you have completed filling in the Network Layer Options Menu, press [Enter] to return to Menu 11.1.

Then press [Enter] at the message [Press Enter to Confirm] to save your selections, press [Esc] to cancel.
