Switch 2 Task — Assign Link via ppp Data Module to Switch 1
This task administers a ppp data module on Switch 2 for the ppp connection to Switch
1. The data module defines a network interface — it associates a link number with a
port address and node name for the C-LAN port on Switch 2. It also specifies the
node name for the destination node, which is a C-LAN port on Switch 1.

Field Conditions/Comments
Type: This indicates the data-module type for this link.
Port: In this example, the C-LAN circuit pack is in slot 01a12; the ppp
connection is through port 06.
Link: The link number must be in the range 1 – 25, not previously
assigned on this switch.
Enable Link? If you need to add an IP route that uses this node as a gateway,
this field must be set to
y before adding the IP route. Otherwise
