Menu 3 is used to enter Ethernet related information. Depending
on the protocols (TCP/IP or IPX) on your LAN, you will need to
configure each protocol separately.
General Ethernet Setup
This menu determines the type of Ethernet interface you are using
as well as the filter sets you wish to implement to monitor your
Ethernet traffic. From Menu 3 - Ethernet Setup, enter 1 to go to
menu 3.1 -General Ethernet Setup.

1. Ethernet Interface - The Prestige supports two types of
Ethernet connections, the AUI (15-pin) or the connection for
the 10BaseT network (looks like a bigger telephone plug).
Determine which type you are using and select the appropriate
option in this field.
2. Input and Output Filter Sets - Filter sets are used to block
certain packets to reduce traffic and to prevent a security
breach. Filtering is a very involved subject, so leave these fields
blank for the time being. After you have studied filtering in
Chapter 10, come back and define the filter sets.
