22 Chapter 1: Introducing the Router 6000 Family
Auto-config is well suited to the low-end and mid-range routers on the
edge of enterprise networks. To build up a network for configuring your
router automatically and remotely, connect the router to the router at the
network center depending on the specific interface that you use:
■ For an E1, T1, E3, and T3 interface, use the fiber-optic line of PDH/SDH
network.
■ For a serial (in synchronous mode), asynchronous, E1-F, or E1-F
interface, use the synchronous/asynchronous leased line of digital data
network (DDN).
■ For a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet interface, use the 10/100 Mbps Ethernet.
■ For an analog modem (AM) interface, use the analog telephone line of
PSTN network.

Auto Detect Auto detect is a function for checking the connectivity of a network
regularly by sending ICMP Request/Reply packets. It works by checking a
group of destination IP addresses to see whether the hosts are reachable
or unreachable. Based on the result, the router can discover problems and
take appropriate actions.
The result of auto detect can be used by other features to control
whether the configurations for the features can take effect.
