AARP Mapping
Table Size
Specifies the number of entries in the AppleTalk router’s address-resolution mapping
table. Estimate the number of end nodes on the attached local network. Then select
the next highest number from one of the following toggle options:
Default: 887
Options
53, 211, 523, 887, 1327, 3327, 9551.
Checksum
Enables or disables the calculation of the DDP checksum for datagrams constructed
and transmitted by the AppleTalk router. AppleTalk provides the option of including
a 16-bit checksum in the header of DDP datagrams. Checksum has no effect upon
incoming datagrams. If the AppleTalk router receives a datagram containing a
checksum, it verifies the checksum value.
Default: No
No
Disables DDP check summing—the AppleTalk router does not calculate a
checksum, and writes a value of 0 to the DDP datagram header.
Yes
Enables DDP check summing—the AppleTalk router calculates and writes a
checksum to the header of any DDP datagram originating from the AppleTalk router.
Cost6
Assigns a cost value to the AppleTalk interface.
Default: 0
Range: 0 to 9, where 0 designates the highest speed (most preferred path) and 9
designates the least preferred path.
Circuit Group Name
The name of a circuit group connecting to a neighboring EtherTalk network, router,
or backbone network. This is one of the circuit groups configured for the Circuit
Group menu
DDP Type Lists
Displays a screen with parameters for creating a DDP (Data Delivery Protocol) Type
filter list. For information about creating a DDP Type filter and assigning the list to a
filter, refer to “DDP Type (low)” and “DDP Type (high)” later in this chapter.
DDP Type (high)
Sets the upper boundary of the range for filtering a DDP Type packet based on the
contents of its DDP Type field, or sets the upper boundary for one range in a DDP
Type list.
Options
Leave this field blank and enter the DDP Type in the DDP Type (low) field if you
are filtering a single DDP Type.
Enter the highest DDP Type in the range if you are filtering a range of DDP Types.
