Configuring a Seed AppleTalk Router
When you configure an AppleTalk router as a seed router, you must define the cable range, AppleTalk address,
and zone names for the router interfaces.
To configure a seed router, perform the following tasks:
1. Configure the cable range (network numbers) to be supported on that interface.
2. Assign an AppleTalk address to the interface.
3. Assign a zone or zones to the interface.
4. Enable AppleTalk routing on the interface.
NOTE: Before configuring interface parameters for AppleTalk, you must enable AppleTalk at the system level.
