Ethernet Interface Configuration
Ethernet interfaces are considerably easier to set up than wide area
interfaces since there are fewer choices that need to be made regarding
communications protocols and parameters. We recommend that you
begin by configuring any Ethernet interface parameters before config-
uring WAN interface parameters.
IP Protocol
Required for IP
These parameters set the basic address characteristics of the interface.
They provide enough information for another IP node to find the inter-
face (such as a Telnet client), but not enough information for routing to
take place.
• IP Address
• IP Subnet Mask
• IP Broadcast Address
CV: Use the TCP/IP Routing: Ethernet Dialog Box to set these param-
eters.
TB: Use the configure command and the IPAddress, SubnetMask,
and IPBroadcast keywords in the IP Ethernet 0 section.
Suggested for IP
These parameters help supply information about the segment to which
the interface is connected. With this information, routing can take
place.
• Set IP RIP 1 or IP RIP 2
• IP Static Routes
CV: Use the TCP/IP Routing: Ethernet Dialog Box to set RIP, and the
IP Static Routing Dialog Box (under Global/IP Static Routes) to
set static routes.
TB: Use configure and set the RIPVersion keyword for the IP
Ethernet 0 section. Use edit config and add static routes in the
IP Static section.
