Deleting an AURP partner

To delete an AURP par tner, select Delete Partner in the AURP Setup screen and press Return to display a
table of existing par tners.

Use the Up and Down Arrow keys to select an AURP par tner, then press Return to delete it. Press the
Escape key to exit without deleting a par tner.

Receiving AURP connections

To control the acceptance of incoming AURP tunnels, select Accept Connections From and choose Anyone
or Configured Partners Only from the pop-up menu. If you choose Anyone, all incoming AURP connections
will be accepted.

The more secure option is Configured Partners Only, which only accepts connections from recognized
AURP par tners (the ones you have set up).

Configuring AURP Options

In the AURP Setup screen, Select AURP Options and go to the AURP Options screen. Using AURP can cause a
problem when two networks, one local and one remote, have the same network number. This may cause
network routing ambiguities than can result in routing errors.

Select Tickle Pkt Rqst Interval (HH:MM:SS) and set the timer to indicate how often a tickle or ‘are you
still there’ packet will be sent to the remote AppleTalk Network.

The AURP tickle timer is a parameter that you can set anywhere between 0 and 100 hours. This parameter
tells the AURP par tners when to send out an AURP tickle packet. If this value is set to 0, the Netopia
R2121 will never send out a tickle packet. Tickle packets verify that the remote router is working. The
minimum tickle inter val is 90 seconds. The maximum tickle inter val setting is 99:59:59 (100 hours), which
is the recommendation for small networks.
