Configuring SLIP
cli syntax:
set slip line,
show slip
line To configure the SLIP parameters proceed as follows;
1. From the Line Configuration menu, select ‘SLIP’ and then select a line.
The SLIP form is now displayed (default values shown):
2. Within the SLIP form, set the parameters listed in the next table:
Option Description
Local ip address This is the IP address of the unit end of the SLIP link. For routing to work you
must enter an IP address in this field. Choose an address which is part of the
same network or subnetwork as the remote end; e.g. if the remote end is address
192.101.34.146, your local ip address may be 192.101.34.145; (in the cli,
example syntax would be:
set slip li 1 lipaddr 192.101.34.145)
Do not use the unit’s (main) ip address in this field; if you do so, routing will not
take place correctly.
