5-2 VBN gateway and Network Services System switch configuration
Software Release 2.30 YesWare Applications User’s Guide 08-01016-01
Configuration requirements
The YWS ETH 1 interface is the "gateway" to the external network used by
the EtherLoop modems and/or Ethernet switches in the VBN. The "Network
Services System" is the switch supporting the VBN system of EtherLoop
modems and/or Ethernet switches. The system administrator must provision
the ETH 1 interface as the Network Services System switch and also as the
gateway serving the VBN. This process includes the following tasks:
• The system administrator must provision the ETH 1 interface as the
single-port Network Services System switch and configure the ETH 1 port
• The InterProxy ETH 1 IP address that was defined using the InterProxy
Configuration Page (see Chapter 4) must be defined as the gateway
address for the VBN.
• The InterProxy ETH 1 network mask that was defined using the
InterProxy Configuration Page (see Chapter 4) must be defined as the
subnet mask for the VBN.
Procedure 5-1 on page 5-3 contains the steps required to complete these tasks.
