Removing an
Interface
You may want to remove an interface if you no longer perform routing on
the ports associated with the interface.
To remove an AppleTalk interface:
1 At the Administration Console’s top-level menu, enter:
appletalk interface remove
2 Enter the slot of the EFSM from which you want to remove an interface.
3 Enter the index number(s) of the interface(s) you want to remove.
The interface is no longer defined on the router.
Administering
Routes
Each EFSM maintains a table of routes to other AppleTalk networks. The
routing table is generated automatically by the Routing Table Maintenance
Protocol (RTMP). RTMP defines the rules for exchanging information
between routers so that the routers can maintain their routing tables, as
well as the rules for the information contained within each routing table.
Each routing table entry contains the following information:
Network Range
A range of numbers used to designate a network segment’s identity
