AppleTalk Parameters Parameters and Options AARP Mapping Table Size Specifies the number of entries in the AppleTalk router’s address-resolution mapping table. Estimate the number of end nodes on the attached local network. Then select the next highest number from one of the following toggle options: Default: 887 Options 53, 211, 523, 887, 1327, 3327, 9551. Checksum Enables or disables the calculation of the DDP checksum for datagrams constructed and transmitted by the AppleTalk router.
AppleTalk Parameters Parameters and Options Enter the list name in the DDP Type (low) field and leave this field blank. if you are creating an DDP Type filter, and want to specify one or more ranges of DDP Types with a DDP Type list. For additional information, refer to “DDP Type (low)” later in this chapter. Note: The creation of DDP Type filters and DDP Type lists is similar—the DDP Type (low) and DDP Type (high) parameters are used to establish a range for filtering packets.
AppleTalk Parameters Parameters and Options Leave this field blank and enter the name of the Network list in the Dest Net (low) field if you want to use a Network list to establish the upper and lower range of AppleTalk destination network numbers. For additional information, refer to “Dest Net (low)” later in this chapter. For more information about Network lists, refer to “Network Number (high)” and “Network Number (low)” later in this chapter.
AppleTalk Parameters Parameters and Options Dest Node (low) Sets the lower boundary of the range for filtering a datagram based on the contents of its destination node field. Options Leave this field blank if you do not want to filter AppleTalk destination nodes. Enter the AppleTalk node identifier in this field and leave the Dest Node (high) field blank if you are filtering a single AppleTalk destination node.
AppleTalk Parameters Parameters and Options Enter the lowest AppleTalk socket number in this field and enter the highest socket number in the Dest Sock (high) field if you are filtering a range of AppleTalk destination sockets. Enter the Socket list name in this field and leave the Dest Sock (high) field blank if you want to use a Socket list to establish the upper and lower range of destination socket numbers. For additional information, refer to “Dest Sock (high)” earlier in this chapter.
AppleTalk Parameters Parameters and Options Note: Lists can simplify the process of creating filters. For example, you could enter the name of a Node list in the Dest Node (low) field rather than creating a range of nodes to filter by entering a range of nodes in the Dest Node (low) and Dest Node (high) fields. Lists save time when you need to filter the same range of source or destination points on the AppleTalk network using different filter rules.
AppleTalk Parameters Parameters and Options Network Min Functional when Seed Router set to ‘‘Yes’’. Operates in conjunction with Network Max to specify the range of network numbers available to nodes on the directlyconnected AppleTalk network. In order to increase the number of nodes residing on a local network, AppleTalk Phase 2 mandates that the seed router provide a range of network numbers, which are then made available to network nodes.
AppleTalk Parameters Parameters and Options For additional information, refer to “Node (low)” later in this chapter. To learn how to assign a Node list to a filter, refer to “Dest Node (low)” and “Source Node (low).” Node ID Assigns the circuit-group-specific node identifier portion of the AppleTalk address. The AppleTalk router uses multiple AppleTalk addresses (one address for each port to which the router is directly connected).
AppleTalk Parameters Parameters and Options Probe Works in conjunction with the Node ID parameter and, in the case of seed routers, the Network parameter to enable or disable the generation of AARP Probe datagrams and their subsequent transmission across Circuit Group Name. Note: It is recommended that you enable Probe, even if you plan to assign an explicit node identifier. Enabling Probe guards against duplicate AppleTalk addresses within an internet.
AppleTalk Parameters Parameters and Options Socket (high) Sets the upper boundary of the range for filtering AppleTalk source or destination sockets when creating a Socket list. Options Leave this field blank and enter the AppleTalk socket number in the Socket (low) field if you are filtering a single AppleTalk source or destination socket. Enter the highest AppleTalk socket number in the range if you are filtering a range of AppleTalk source or destination sockets.
AppleTalk Parameters Parameters and Options Options Leave this field blank if you do not want to filter AppleTalk source networks. Enter the AppleTalk network number in this field and leave the Source Net (high) field blank if you are filtering a single AppleTalk source network. Enter the lowest AppleTalk network number in this field and enter the highest network number in the Source Net (high) field if you are filtering a range of AppleTalk source networks.
AppleTalk Parameters Parameters and Options Enter the Node list name in this field and leave the Source Node (high) field blank if you want to use a Node list to establish the upper and lower range of source node identifiers. For additional information, refer to “Source Node (high)” earlier in this chapter. For more information about Node lists, refer to “Node (high)” and “Node (low)” earlier in this chapter.
AppleTalk Parameters Parameters and Options Enter the lowest AppleTalk socket number in this field and enter the highest socket number in the Source Sock (high) field if you are filtering a range of AppleTalk source sockets. Enter the Socket list name in this field and leave the Source Sock (high) field blank if you want to use a Socket list to establish the upper and lower range of source socket numbers. For additional information, refer to “Source Sock (high)” earlier in this chapter.

X.25 Service Parameters Overview X.
X.25 Service Parameters Parameters and Options Parameters and Options Auto Enable Determines the initial state of the LAPB circuit. The LAPB-specific Auto Enable parameter works in conjunction with the global Auto Enable parameter based on the following criteria: When global Auto Enable is No, the LAPB circuit identified by Circuit Name is unconditionally disabled—the LAPB-specific Auto Enable parameter is disabled when the global Auto Enable parameter is disabled.
X.25 Service Parameters Parameters and Options Circuit Name Accepts an ASCII character string identifying the LAPB circuit name. Circuit Type Determines the circuit type. LAPB Always set to LAPB—ignore all other protocol options when configuring LAPB circuits. Closed User Group Determines whether the lower circuit is connected to a port subscribing to CUG (Closed User Group). For additional information, refer to Table 13-2.
X.25 Service Parameters Parameters and Options Flow Ctrl Enables or disables Flow Control Parameter Negotiation. Flow Control Parameter Negotiation is available as a subscription option from most service providers. Default: Negot Deflt Disables flow control negotiation. With negotiation disabled, the configured values for Pkt Window and Pkt Size serve as the defaults across the circuit. Note: If you disable flow control, assure that the X.25 DCE has also disabled flow control.
X.25 Service Parameters Parameters and Options 13 High SVC LCN = [254 / N] + Low SVC LCN - 1 where: [254 / N] is the integer quotient of 254 divided by N. Low SVC LCN is the value assigned to the Low SVC LCN parameter. If you are configuring a combination of X.25 DDN, X.25 PDN or X.2 5 Switch service in conjunction with X.25 Point-to-Point service, use the following formula to calculate High SVC LCN: High SVC LCN = [(254 - V) / N] + Low SVC LCN - 1 where: V is the number of X.
X.25 Service Parameters Parameters and Options Local DTE Address Sets the network-supplied decimal number (X.121 Address) identifying the interface between the router and the X.25 network. After assigning the local DTE address, the screen prompts for X.25 address map data. Lowexxr Circuit Name Assigns the circuit providing the LAPB service. Enter the name of the previously configured LAPB circuit. Low PVC LCN Sets the minimum LCN for a permanent virtual circuit (PVC).
X.25 Service Parameters Parameters and Options Max Queue Size Sets the maximum size (in packets) of the transmit queue of each individual X.25 virtual circuit. If the value specified by Max Queue Size is exceeded, the router drops the oldest packet(s) in the transmit queue. Default: 10 Range: 1 to 999 Min Frame Spacing Sets the minimum number of flag sequences prefixed to an X.25 packet. As is the HDLC packet, an X.
X.25 Service Parameters Parameters and Options N2 Determines the number of times a frame is retransmitted before the circuit is reset. If a frame remains unacknowledged at the expiration of the T1 timer, X.25 retransmits the outstanding frame up to N2 times, with each retransmittal requesting an immediate acknowledgment. If the frame remains unacknowledged after N2 retries, the router resets the LAPB circuit. Default: 20 Range: 1 to 255. Negotiated Pkt Size Appears when Flow Control is set to Negot.
X.25 Service Parameters Parameters and Options Determines the maximum number of bytes in the information field of an X.25 level-3 packet. Pkt Size Default: 128 Range: 1 to 2048 Note: Current buffer size limitations prevent upper level redirecting protocols from presenting packets larger than 1600 bytes to X.25. Consequently, the actual maximum size of the information field that will actually be transmitted by X.25 (even if Pkt Size is set to 2048) is 1600 bytes.
X.25 Service Parameters Parameters and Options SVC Enables or disables switched virtual circuits (SVCs). Default: Yes No Disables switched virtual circuits. Yes Enables switched virtual circuits. When SVC is enabled, the Low SVC LCN and High SVC LCN parameters take effect. T1 Sets the T1 time interval, in tenths of a second, determining how long a frame can remain unacknowledged.
