MAX 6000/3000 Network Configuration Guide

Configuring Individual WAN Connections
Configuring AppleTalk connections from RADIUS

If there are other AppleTalk routers on the network, you must configure the zone names
and network ranges to coincide with the other routers on the LAN.

The default for the Zone Name parameter is blank. Enter up to 33 alphanumeric characters
to identify the zone name for the unit you are configuring.

Note:

These parameters are N/A if you have not enabled AppleTalk in the Ethernet

profile. menu

Set the AppleTalk Router parameter to specify whether the MAX unit is a seed or nonseed
router. The default setting is Off, which disables AppleTalk routing.

A seed router must be assigned a network range and zone name. There must be at least one
seed router on a routed AppleTalk network. Select AppleTalk Router=Seed for this option.

A nonseed router learns network number and zone information from other routers. Set the
AppleTalk Router parameter to Non-Seed for this option. If you choose Non-Seed or Off,
then the parameters Net Start, Net End, Default Zone, and Zone Name #N are N/A.

If you are configuring a nonseed router and are using Names/Passwords, go to
“Configuring an AppleTalk PPP connection with a Names/Passwords profile” on
page 4-73.

If you are configuring the MAX unit as a seed router, specify the network range for the
network to which the MAX unit is attached.

Net Start and Net End define the network range for nodes attached to this network. Valid
entries for these parameters are in the range from 1 to 65199. If there are other AppleTalk
routers on the network, you must configure the network ranges to coincide with the other
routers.

4

Specify the default zone name for nodes on the MAX unit’s internet.

Enter up to 33 alphanumeric characters for the default zone name. The default for the
Default Zone parameter is blank.

The default zone is the one used by a node for which you are configuring the Connection
profile until another zone name is explicitly selected by the node.

5

Specify the zone names that the platform can seed.

The unit can seed up to 32 zones, and the Pipeline unit can seed up to 5. Enter up to 33
alphanumeric characters in each Zone Name #N field.

Exit the profile and, at the exit prompt, select the exit and accept option.
