Selecting a Configuration Path
Guided Configuration
If you press the key labeled
[Guided Config] at the NS Configuration
screen, you will be taken to the Network Transport Configuration
screen shown in Figure 3-5. From this screen, you choose the specific
task you want to perform using guided NS configuration. These tasks
include configuring or modifying a network interface, modifying logging
parameters, and fine tuning global or network transport configuration
parameters.

Guided configuration is a procedure that automates part of the
configuration process. It “guides” you through the configuration screens
for a specific task. It assumes and supplies default values wherever
possible to furnish most of the configuration file’s data.
When you run guided configuration, you use only a minimal number of
configuration screens. You will normally use fewer screens than you
would if you were performing the same task using unguided
configuration. Many of these screens are different from those used for
unguided configuration.
