Network Transport Configuration
If you press the [Guided Config] function key from the NS Configuration
screen, the Network Transport Configuration screen (#42) shown in
Figure 2-5 appears. This is the first guided configuration screen. For
information specific to the guided configuration screens (including the
screen shown here), refer to the HP 3000/iX Network Planning and
Configuration Guide.

Guided configuration is an NMMGR procedure that automates
configuration. It assumes and supplies default values wherever possible
to furnish most of the configuration file’s data.
When you run guided configuration, you visit only a minimal number of
configuration screens. A number of these screens are different from
those you would see during unguided configuration.
NOTE HP strongly recommends that you use guided configuration to configure
each node initially. You can also take advantage of its convenience later
for most network maintenance and updating. Use manual configuration
only if guided configuration does not provide access to the configuration
data you need to change.
