6-12 LAN-to-LAN Routing
LAN-to-LAN Routing (Detailed Setup)
The following section gives details on configuring routing from
the command line. To attach to the command line software, see
Connecting to the Command Line in Chapter 2.
Configuring the Port
Ports used for LAN-to-LAN routing need to be configured as
Network ports.
Step 1 - Port Type
The port must be configured as a network port with one of the
following options. Dial In, Dial Out, Dial In & Dial Out
(twoway), or Hardwired. Use the following command:
set s<port #> network < dialin | dialout | twoway | hardwired>
Hardwired: Setting a port to Hardwired tells the NETServer’s
operating software that you are establishing a synchronous
connection via a serial cable. Since s0 is the only serial port, this
is the only port for which the hardwired setting is valid.
If you configure s0 as Hardwired, set the following parameters
and go to Step 3. (For an explanation, see Ports Table, Hardwired
Port Parameters in Chapter 10).
