ured using text-based configuration.
TB: Use configure and set either the RIPVersion keyword or the OSPFEnabled keyword in
the IP WAN 0 (and/or any other port you wish to configure) section. Add static routes and a
default router using the edit config IP Static command.
v Note: Due to the complexity of BGP, configuration parameters for BGP are not given in this
Quickstart. For help with BGP configuration parameters, and other configuration questions,
refer to the Tech Support pages on the Compatible Systems Web site at:

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.
AppleTalk Protocol
Required for AppleTalk
WAN interfaces which are set for PPP operation do not generally use an AppleTalk address.
They are set to act as an “unnumbered interface.” In this mode of operation, there are no
required settings.
DECnet Protocol
Required for DECnet
The router’s shipping configuration does not have DECnet turned on. In order to be used,
DECnet must be turned on both globally and for a particular port.
• Set DECnet on (globally, and for a port)
• Set DECnet area
• Set DECnet node
CV: Use the DECnet Routing Dialog Box (under Global/DECnet Routing) and the DECnet:
WAN Dialog Box.
TB: Use configure and set the Mode keyword in the DECnet WAN 0 (and/or any other port
you wish to configure) section. Use configure and set the Enabled, Area, and Node keywords
in the DECnet Global section.
v Note: Setting DECnet on for any port with the command line also sets DECnet on globally.
In CompatiView you must set a global parameter and a port-specific parameter.
Suggested for DECnet
Setting the parameters above should be adequate for most installations.
Frame Relay Configuration
This section covers the settings required for Frame Relay operation of the V.35 WAN inter-
faces. In general, the parameters listed here should be set for each WAN interface on which
you plan to use Frame Relay. Note that some WAN interfaces can be running Frame Relay
while others are running PPP.
The V.35 interfaces can only be run synchronously, at rates up to 2 Mb per second.
