Configuring Individual WAN Connections
The Connection profile
MAX 6000/3000 Network Configuration Guide 4-19
Overview of the Options subprofiles
The following Options subprofiles apply to incoming calls that use a particular encapsulation
or routing protocol, specify that the unit gathers accounting information for the incoming call,
or enable the MAX unit to act as a DHCP server:
For detailed information about each parameter, see the MAX Reference.
Route AppleTalk Whether this Connection profile supports AppleTalk routing.
AppleTalk routing must be set on both sides of the connection, and in
the AppleTalk options submenu for the profile.
Framed Only Whether or not the user is allowed access to all the terminal-server
commands or to a subset of them. Terminal-server users connecting
through this profile can have unlimited access to the terminal-server
commands, or can have limited access with the PPP, SLIP, CSLIP, and
Quit commands.
Bridge Whether link-level bridging is supported. The MAX unit bridges a
frame on the basis of the frame’s destination MAC address.
Dial Brdcast Whether or not the unit dials this connection when it receives Ethernet
broadcast packets. A broadcast is a message to all users currently
logged into the network. By default, the unit does not dial on
broadcast; it relies on its internal bridging table to bring up specific
bridged connections.
Shared Prof Whether or not multiple users can share a single Connection profile or
a single RADIUS user profile or whether or not a single user can have
multiple sessions active.
