5.3 Router Configurator
The Router Configurator is a software application that enables you to create, modify
and load configuration information for supported bridging routers.
The Router Configurator has a Graphical User Interface (GUI). You configure
individual bridging routers by entering information on tab pages (screens) for the
various router features that you want.
The Router Configurator enables you to do the following tasks:
• Create one or more configurations for a router.
• Modify previously created configurations.
• View a summary file containing details of a given configuration.
• Enter command line interface (CLI) commands to configure features not sup-
ported in the Router Configurator.
• Load routers, using Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP).
• Send CLI commands to routers, using Telnet.
5.3.1 Router Configurator Features
The clearVISN Router Configurator allows you to configure a basic set of features
and parameters for supported routers. You can configure the following features:
• General system information, including: Hub membership information, SNMP
management information, a list of permitted users, BootP relay agent informa-
tion, and management addresses.
• IP Routing, including OSPF and RIP routing.
• DECnet Phase IV routing.
• DECnet Phase V/OSI routing.
• NetWare IPX routing.
• Bridging, including Transparent (spanning tree) and Source Route bridging.
The Router Configurator only lets you configure the features and parameters
supported by the Distributed Routing Software utility QUICK CONFIG. To
configure the full set of router features, you need to use the router’s CLI commands.
