ASYNC ROUTER AR-P, AR-5, AND SYNC ROUTER REFERENCE MANUAL

number.
iface eth0, modem0-4, sync0
/ frame_type The frame type you want to assign to the interface. Legal frame types are:
• 802.3
• 802.2
• SNAP
• II (for Ethernet Type 2)
Use a slash to separate the iface from the frame_type—for example, eth0/802.2. If left unspecified, the
default frame_type is 802.3.
net_number—If net_number is not present, the current net number for the interface is displayed. If
net_number is present, specify net_number as the IPX network number of this interface. You cannot
change the network number unless the interface is marked down.
The net_number is specified as a hexadecimal number with range 0 to FFFFFFFE. Leading zeroes are
optional. A net number between 1 to FFFFFFFE must be entered before the iface interface can be
brought up. A net number of 0 will “unset” the network number on this interface.
up—Enable IPX routing on this interface. When an Ethernet interface is enabled, a route to the
interface is entered in the route table and the router will send out RIP and SAP requests for latest
information. For a modem interface, no route is added and no RIP or SAP requests will be made
until a connection occurs. ifconfig never causes a modem to dial. You cannot bring up an interface
with a “0” network number (unset).
down—Disable IPX routing on this interface. All routing and Service Table entries which point out
through this interface are deleted. IPX packets will not be routed through this interface.
ifconfig iface [speed [bps]]
iface—modem0-4, sync0
speed—The speed subcommand allows you to change the speed of the connection between the Router
and its modem, sync, and ISDN interfaces.
bps—bits per second. Typical choices are 38400 bps for V.34 modem interfaces, 57600 bps for
synchronous interfaces, and 115200 bps for ISDN interfaces.
