Collect your Configuration Information
This section describes the configuration information associated with each Link Protocol/Network Protocol
combination and also provides configuration information for the Dual Ethernet router. It is organized as follows:
Link Protocols/Network Protocols Configurations
1. Determine which Link Protocol/Network Protocol association you are using. This information is obtained
from your Network Service Provider (NSP).
2. To locate the Link/Network information that applies to your situation, use the following listing:
PPP with:
IP Routing Network Protocol, page 28
IP Routing Network Protocol, page 28
Bridging Network Protocol, page 32
RFC 1483 or RFC 1490 with:
IP Routing Network Protocol, page 40
IPX Routing Network Protocol, page 35
Bridging Network Protocol, page 32
MAC Encapsulated Routing: RFC 1483MER or RFC 1490MER with
:
IP Routing Network Protocol, page 40
FRF8 Link Protocol with:
IP Routing Network Protocol, page 40
3. Collect the information applicable to your Link/Network Protocol association. This information will be used
later in conjunction with the
Configuration Tables
for easy configuration of your router based on your Link/
Network protocol. These configuration tables provide step-by-step instructions for a basic configuration for
each Link/Network protocol.
Note:
Use the blank Network Information Worksheets in Appendix A to collect your network information.
