This chapter briefly discusses the major parameters that must be set in order to use the
DS3-10/100 RIOP as part of your VSR multigigabit switching router.
Detailed information on the meaning of the router’s parameters is provided in the Compa-
tiView Management Software Reference Guide and the Text-Based Configuration and
Command Line Management Reference Guide. You should use this list as a starting point to
look up more specific information in the other documents.
If you need more general information on IP, IPX, AppleTalk or wide area protocols, see the
Appendices in the CompatiView Management Software Reference Guide.
There are a number of parameter settings which are optional, in the sense that they are not
required for all installations. These settings are not covered in this chapter.

DS3-10/100 RIOP.
