Introduction to the Octal V.35-10/100 RIOP 1 Introduction to the Octal V.35-10/100 RIOP The Octal V.35-10/100 Routing Input/Output Processor (RIOP), as part of the VSR multigigabit switching router, allows you to connect a local Ethernet and up to eight remote corporate networks. Each of the V.35 interfaces has a data capacity of up to 2.048 Mbps, while the Ethernet interface can operate at either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps. This section of the manual contains information specific to the Octal V.35-10/100 RIOP.
Chapter 1 - Network Installation 2 Chapter 1 - Network Installation Octal V.35-10/100 RIOP Front Panel This section of the manual will help you install the Octal V.35-10/100 RIOP to connect a local Ethernet and up to eight remote corporate networks. These connections can be made to other Compatible Systems devices or internetworking equipment from other vendors. In summary, the steps for installation are: 1.
Chapter 1 - Network Installation 3 Telco Line Connection Requirements The Octal V.35-10/100 is not a line communications device. In order to connect each V.35 port to a wide area transmission line, you must use a 56K CSU/DSU, ISDN Terminal Adapter, or T1/E1 CSU/DSU. Which of these devices you use depends on the type of telco line you are connecting to. v Note: Before attempting to connect the Octal V.35-10/100 to a leased telco line, use the loopback features of your CSU/DSUs to check the line.
Chapter 2 - Quickstart Instructions 4 Chapter 2 - Quickstart Instructions This Quickstart chapter briefly discusses the major parameters that must be set in order to use the Octal V.35-10/100 RIOP as part of your VSR multigigabit switching router. Detailed information on the meaning of the router’s parameters is provided in the CompatiView Management Software Reference Guide and the Text-Based Configuration and Command Line Management Reference Guide.
Chapter 2 - Quickstart Instructions 5 Suggested for IP These parameters help supply information about the segment that the interface is connected to. With this information, routing can take place. • Set IP RIP 1, IP RIP 2 or OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) • IP static routes CV: Use the TCP/IP Routing: Ethernet 0 Dialog Box to set RIP, and the IP Static Routing Dialog Box (under Global/IP Static Routes) to set static routes. OSPF can only be configured using text-based configuration.
Chapter 2 - Quickstart Instructions 6 In CompatiView you must set a global parameter and a port-specific parameter. Suggested for DECnet Setting the parameters above should be adequate for most installations. WAN Interface Configuration The default setting for all WAN interfaces on your Octal V.35-10/100 RIOP is Off for all protocols and for the link configuration. In order to use a WAN interface, you must first set some physical parameters and then set up the link and protocol parameters.
Chapter 2 - Quickstart Instructions 7 ured using text-based configuration. TB: Use configure and set either the RIPVersion keyword or the OSPFEnabled keyword in the IP WAN 0 (and/or any other port you wish to configure) section. Add static routes and a default router using the edit config IP Static command. v Note: Due to the complexity of BGP, configuration parameters for BGP are not given in this Quickstart.
Chapter 2 - Quickstart Instructions 8 WAN Link Configuration Required for Dedicated Line Operation Frame Relay is presently supported in the Octal V.35-10/100 RIOP only via synchronous dedicated line operation. • Set Dedicated connection • Set Frame Relay connection CV: Use the Link Configuration: WAN Dialog Box. TB: Use configure and then set the Mode and ConnectMode keywords in the Link Config WAN 0 (and/or any other port you wish to configure) section.
Chapter 2 - Quickstart Instructions 9 Suggested for IP These parameters help supply information about the segment that the interface is connected to. With this information, routing can take place. • Set IP RIP 1, IP RIP 2, OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) or BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) • IP static routes CV: Use the TCP/IP Routing: WAN Dialog Box to set RIP, and the IP Static Routing Dialog Box (under Global/IP Static Routes) to set static routes.
Chapter 2 - Quickstart Instructions 10 TB: Use configure and set keywords in the AppleTalk WAN 0 (and/or any other port you wish to configure) section. DECnet Protocol Required for DECnet In order to be used, DECnet must be turned on both globally and for a particular port. WAN interfaces which are set for Frame Relay operation do not need any additional parameters set in order to function.

Chapter 4 - LED Patterns 12 Chapter 4 - LED Patterns Some of the LEDs on the front of the VSR multigigabit switching router serve dual functions. In addition to indicating certain router-wide operating conditions, they may also display portspecific information. v Note: Any continuous flashing pattern not noted in this chapter may be caused by a hardware failure. Please call Compatible Systems Technical Support if your router shows a hardware failure.
