Figure 3-11 Menu 3.1 - General Ethernet Setup

1.Ethernet Interface - The Prestige supports two types of Ethernet connections, the AUI (15-pin) or the connection for the 10BaseT network (looks like a bigger telephone plug). Determine which type you are using and select the appropriate option in this field.

2.Input and Output Filter Sets - Filter sets are used to block certain packets to reduce traffic and to prevent a security breach. Filtering is a very involved subject, so leave these fields blank for the time being. After you have studied filtering in Chapter 10, come back and define the filter sets.
