Conﬁguring the Ethernet Interface

If your router has an Ethernet network processor module installed, you need to conﬁgure

the Ethernet ports.

Take the following steps to conﬁgure the Ethernet interfaces:

Step 1 Respond as follows to the prompts, substituting the correct IP address and

number of subnet bits for your site. In the following example, the system is being

conﬁgured for an Ethernet LAN using IP.

Configuring interface parameters:

Configuring interface Ethernet0:

Is this interface in use? [yes]:

Configure IP on this interface? [yes]:

IP address for this interface: 172.16.72.1

Number of bits in subnet field [0]: 8

Class B network is 172.16.0.0, 8 subnet bits; mask is

255.255.255.0

Step 2 Enter yes if you will be using AppleTalk on the interface, enter yes to conﬁgure

for extended AppleTalk networks, and then enter the cable range number, the

zone name, and any other additional zones that will be associated with your local

zone:

Configure AppleTalk on this interface? [no]: yes

Extended AppleTalk network? [no]: yes

AppleTalk starting cable range [0]: 1

AppleTalk ending cable range [1]: 2

AppleTalk zone name [myzone]:

AppleTalk additional zone name: otherzone

AppleTalk additional zone name:
