IBM SC30-3865-04 Network Router User Manual


 
DTE Address [ ]:
Default Metric [20]:
Metric Type [Internal]:
State [ON]:
Note: If the subnet does not exist, you will receive the error message
Subnet does not exist - cannot define a reachable address.
Interface Number
Defines the interface over which the address is reached
Address Prefix
Defines the NSAP prefix (20 bytes maximum).
MAC Address
Defines the destination MAC address. You must specify this
address if the interface corresponds to a LAN subnet. This prompt
will only appear if the interface is connected to a LAN subnet.
Mapping Type
Defines how the destination physical address is determined, manual
or X.121.
If manual, the protocol will prompt for the DTE address.
If X.121, the protocol will not prompt you for the DTE address.
The DTE address in this instance is extracted from the NSAP.
DTE Address
Defines the destination DTE address. You must specify this address
if the interface is X.25 and the mapping type is manual. This prompt
only appears if the interface is configured for X.25 and the mapping
type is manual.
Default Metric
Defines the cost of the address.
Metric Type
Defines whether the metric cost is used for external (E) routing or
internal (I) routing.
State When set to ON, this prefix-address is advertised to other L2
routers. When set to OFF, this is a non-functional prefix-address.
routing-circuit
Adds a communications channel for X.25 switched virtual circuits (SVCs)
that the routing layer uses to send and receive data.
The routing circuit parameter is only applicable if you configure your router
as a DEC-type router. You can specify on of these types of routing circuit:
v static-in
v static-out
v dynamically-assigned
A static-in circuit handles incoming X.25 calls. A call filter (see add filter)
specifies data the router uses to accept or reject incoming calls on the
circuit. A static-out circuit initiates outgoing X.25 calls. The router uses a call
template (see add template) to make outgoing calls. A
dynamically-assigned circuit can have multiple SVCs running
simultaneously. Unlike static circuits, the router uses a dynamically-assigned
circuit only when there is traffic in or out of the router. It closes the
dynamically-assigned circuit upon expiration of an idle timer.
