Node Numbers — Servers can have internal and external node numbers. The internal node
number is a logical number assigned by the system administrator to the server. The external node
number is the MAC address of the server. When adding SAP services to the SAP table, internal
node numbers are used.
Network Information Tables
The following tables list the items you need to define or obtain to configure the router. This
information is illustrated in the network information diagrams and described in the previous
sections. Worksheets are provided in
Chapter D, so that you can enter details about your CSX400
and remote routers. Table 4 provides information for configuring your system settings, Table 5
explains the Remote Router Database configuration settings and Table 6 details bridging and
routing configuration.
NOTE
To configure the CSX400, you need to fill out one chart for the CSX400 and one
Remote Router chart for each remote router to be entered into the remote router
database. If you are setting up both ends of the network, you need a mirror image of
the information listed below for configuring the router on the other end of the ISDN link.
