If you are connecting to multiple remote sites, get additional VPI and VCI numbers
from your Network Service Provider. These numbers identify the remote destination
and must, therefore, be unique for each remote.
DLCI number (for RFC 1490MER)
The DLCI number applies to Frame Relay routers only. Your Network Service
Provider or your Network Access Provider will provide you with a DLCI (Data Link
Connection Identifier). The DLCI is an address identifying your connection.
DNS Internet Account Information (optional)
Consult with your Network Service Provider to determine if you need to enter the
following information:
• DNS server address
• DNS second server address
• DNS domain name
IP Routing Entries
• For the Ethernet interface:
Ethernet IP Address (Local LAN)
An Ethernet LAN IP address and subnet mask are required for the
router’s local Ethernet LAN connection. This information is defined by the
user or your network administrator.
TCP/IP Ethernet Routes
You normally do not need to define an Ethernet IP route. An Ethernet IP
route consists of an IP address, a mask, a metric, and a gateway. An
Ethernet route is usually defined when there are multiple routers on the
Ethernet that cannot exchange routing information between them.
• For the ATM WAN interface:
The following information is defined by your Network Administrator or the
Network Service Provider.
Source (Target/Local) WAN Port Address and Mask
You must specify a Source WAN IP address for the WAN connection to
the remote router (whether or not Network Address Translation is
enabled). The Source WAN Address is the address of the local router on
the remote network. The mask is the mask used on the remote network.
Check with your system administrator for details.
