Protocols
be at least one seed router on the network. Discovery mode is not supported for WAN ports, and
therefore a valid network range/number needs to be specified.
N
ODE ID
If the system is acting as a seed router on this port, then this parameter specifies the suggested
AppleTalk address (Extended) or Node Id (NonExtended), which is used as initial value for the
AppleTalk address for the port. The default is no suggested address.
Note: An AppleTalk address consists of the network number followed by a node Id. For example,
if the network number is 1234, and the node’s Id is 56, the node’s AppleTalk address would
be 1234.56.
R
OUTING PROTOCOL
Specifies what routing protocol the system should use with this remote device. Since Routine Table
Maintenance Protocol (RTMP) periodically sends out routing updates, RTMP should be chosen
only when the remote device is connected over the WAN links whose cost is not a major concern,
such as dedicated links. The default value is None.

ONFIGURING THE APPLETALK PROTOCOL
1. On the Functions menu, select Users, or click on the toolbar. The User List dialog appears.
2. Select a user that which you want to configure for the AppleTalk protocol, or click Add to
configure a new user. The User dialog appears.
3. Select AppleTalk on the Protocols tab.
4. Enable AppleTalk by clicking in the box.
5. Determine if the user is Callable.
Note: A telephone number through which a CyberSWITCH can establish a connection must
be configured before enabling the callable function. See Configuring Telephone.
6. Enter a Network Number, if necessary.
7. Enter a Node ID, if necessary.
8. Select a Routing Protocol.
9. Click Update to write the new information for the user to the database, or click Add to create the
newly configured user.
Note: If you are adding a new user to the database, a User Name must be defined on the
Address tab.
10. Click Close.
Note: An AppleTalk Routing Port must be defined on all CyberSWITCHES that each AppleTalk
user can access. Refer to the AppleTalk Routing Ports section in the CyberSWITCH
documentation for further information.
