5-2 Remote Node TCP/IP Configuration
5.1.1 Editing TCP/IP Options
Follow the steps below to edit Menu 11.3 – Remote Node Network Layer Options.
In Menu 11.1, move the cursor to the Edit IP/IPX/Bridge field, then press [SPACE BAR] to set the value
to Yes. Press [ENTER] to display Menu 11.3 – Network Layer Options.
There are two versions of Menu 11.3 for the Prestige, depending on whether you chose VC-based or LLC-
based multiplexing in Menu 11.1.
VC-based Multiplexing
Remember that for VC-based multiplexing, by prior mutual agreement, a protocol is assigned a specific
virtual circuit, e.g. VC1 will carry IP, VC2 will carry IPX, etc. However, note that for PPP or PPPoE
encapsulation, we just need 1 VC no matter what protocol (IP/IPX/Bridge) is being carried.
Figure 5-2 Menu 11.3 for VC-based Multiplexing
In this case, separate VPI and VCI numbers must be specified for each protocol.
LLC-based Multiplexing
For LLC-based multiplexing, one VC may carry multiple protocols with protocol identifying information
contained in each packet header.
