IP Protocol
Required for IP
WAN interfaces which are set for PPP operation do not generally use an IP address.
They are set to act as an “unnumbered interface.” In this mode of operation, there
are no required settings.
Suggested for IP
These parameters help supply information about the segment that the interface is
connected to. With this information, routing can take place.
• IP RIP 1 (Routing Information Protocol version 1)
and/or
• IP Static Routes
• IP Default Route/Router
v
Note : If you set RIP to “on” for a dial-on-demand link, you must also set the
update method to triggered to avoid the link being brought up by transmission of
RIP information. You should only use triggered operation when you are connecting
to another DCB router at the other end of the link.
RV: Use the WAN - IP screen to set RIP and the update method, and the IP Static
Routing Window (All - IP) to set static routes and a default route/router.
CL: Use interface(misc) and then ip flags(set) to set RIP, and ip wan(set) to set
the update method, and ip route(add) to add static routes and a default route/router.
IPX Protocol
Required for IPX
WAN interfaces which are set for PPP operation do not generally use an IPX
address. They are set to act as an “unnumbered interface.” In this mode of
operation, there are no required settings.
Suggested for IPX
If you plan to use dial-on-demand for this link, you should set the update method
“triggered” to avoid the link being brought up by transmission of IPX RIP
information. You should only use triggered operation when you are connecting to
another DCB router at the other end.
When you set up an on-demand link with IPX, you should carefully monitor link
usage to determine whether the link is being activated only when it is needed.
Additional router configuration will be required for many networks in order to
achieve optimal link usage.
