Preface

Obtaining Documentation

Data Formats

As you configure and manage the system, enter data in the following formats unless the instructions
indicate otherwise:

Obtaining Documentation

The following sections provide sources for obtaining documentation from Cisco Systems.

World Wide Web

You can access the most current Cisco documentation on the World Wide Web at the following sites:

http://www.cisco.com

http://www-china.cisco.com

http://www-europe.cisco.com

Documentation CD-ROM

Cisco documentation and additional literature are available in a CD-ROM package, which ships
with your product. The Documentation CD-ROM is updated monthly

and may be more current than

printed documentation. The CD-ROM package is available as a single unit or as an annual subscription.

Type of Data

Format

IP Addresses

IP addresses use 4-byte dotted decimal notation (for example, 192.168.12.34);
as the example indicates, you can omit leading zeros in a byte position.

Subnet Masks and
Wildcard Masks

Subnet masks use 4-byte dotted decimal notation (for example,
255.255.255.0). Wildcard masks use the same notation (for example,
0.0.0.255); as the example illustrates, you can omit leading zeros in a byte
position.

MAC Addresses

MAC addresses use 6-byte hexadecimal notation (for example,
00.10.5A.1F.4F.07).

Hostnames

Hostnames use legitimate network hostname or end-system name notation (for
example, VPN01). Spaces are not allowed. A hostname must uniquely identify
a specific system on a network.

Text Strings

Text strings use upper- and lower-case alphanumeric characters. Most text
strings are case-sensitive (for example, simon and Simon represent different
usernames). In most cases, the maximum length of text strings is 48
characters.

Filenames

Filenames on the VPN 3002 follow the DOS 8.3 naming convention: a
maximum of eight characters for the name, plus a maximum of three
characters for an extension. For example, LOG00007.TXT is a legitimate
filename. The VPN 3002 always stores filenames in uppercase.

Port Numbers

Port numbers use decimal numbers from 0 to 65535. Commas and spaces are
not permitted.
