CV: Use the DECnet Routing Dialog Box (under Global/DECnet

Routing) and the DECnet: Ethernet Dialog Box.

TB: Use configure and set the Enabled, Area, and Node keywords in

the DECnet Global section.

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.

WAN Interface Configuration

In order to use a WAN interface, you may first need to set some phys-
ical parameters and then set up the link and protocol parameters.

There are a few differences between the capabilities of the V.35 WAN
interface and the RS-232 WAN interface. The V.35 interface can only
be run synchronously, at rates up to 2 Mbps per second. The RS-232
interface can be run synchronously or asynchronously, at rates up to
256Kbps (sync) or 230.4Kbps (async).

Physical Communications Settings

You may need to set the baud rate, sync/async operation, and other
physical communications parameters for the WAN interface. These
parameters will depend on the line communications device you are
using.

v

Note:

Frame Relay and SMDS are presently supported in the

MicroRouter 2200R only via synchronous operation. An external
clock signal is generated for Frame Relay.

CV: Use the Physical Configuration: WAN Dialog Box.

TB: Use configure and set the LinkType keyword or other keywords

in the RS232 Interface WAN 0 (and/or WAN 1) section.
