The LAN network interface (NI) module serves to interface the upper

layers of the transport product to the link layer. This screen supplies

the information required for that interface. All of the ﬁelds, with the

exception of the HP UPC number, are used for internal resource

allocation.

Press the

[Save Data] function key to transfer the data displayed on the

screen to the conﬁguration ﬁle you are creating or modifying. Verify

that the data record has been created by checking that the Data ﬂag is

set to Y. From this screen you proceed to the screens used to conﬁgure

the LAN link and internetwork routing.

Choose the item you wish to conﬁgure, and press the corresponding key.
