1.1 Conventions Used in This Chapter
Bold typeface—Commands and keywords. Enter the syntax exactly as shown.
Italics—Mandatory parameters that have values. Enter text or numbers in place of the italicized
parameter name.
[ ]—Brackets enclose optional parameters.
|—Vertical bars separate mutually exclusive keywords. Enter only one keyword.
[ x | y | z ]—Choose one and only one of the options (X, Y, Z), or choose none.
{ }—Curly brackets enclose a list of mandatory, mutually exclusive parameters. You must choose one.
[x] [y] [z]—You must choose at least one item (X, Y or Z), and you may choose more than one at the
same time, e.g, x y.
< >—Chevrons enclose a list of mandatory parameters. Choose at least one, although you can include
more than one.
<RETURN>—At the end of each command press <RETURN> to execute it. For clarity, some
commands are shown on more than one line; do not press <RETURN> until the end of the
command.
1.2 Interface Addresses
The iface[/frame_type] parameters indicate the interface and frame type. iface is specified as one of the
following, depending on your Router model: eth0, sync0, modem0, modem1, modem2, modem3, or
modem4. If eth0 is selected, the frame_type can be specified as part of the interface, and can be either
802.3, 802.2, SNAP or II (for Ethernet Type 2). Use a slash to separate the iface from the frame_type, e.g.,
eth0/802.2. If left unspecified, the default frame_type is 802.3.
For the Ethernet interface, the iface parameter is a string of the form eth0/frame_type. For all other
interfaces, iface is of the form modemX. Examples are:
ethN Ethernet N interface, raw 802.3 frame type
ethN/802.3 Ethernet N interface, raw 802.3 frame type
