Point-to-Point (Router) Network Interface Configuration Screens
Point-to-Point Reachable Nodes
List name
The name of the link on this node over which packets to
the destination node must be sent. The name of the link
is configured separately (see related screens).
Related screens:
• NETXPORT.NI.NIname.LINK
This screen configures the link name.
• LINK.linkname
This screen configures link attributes.
Default value: None
Adjacent (0) / Non-adjacent (1)
This field indicates whether the destination is an
adjacent node to the node being configured (0) or if it is
non-adjacent, i.e., the destination must be accessed
through intermediate nodes (1).
Default value: None
Range: 0 or 1
Entry priority
This field is useful when alternate routes are
configured to a destination node. It is the primary
means of influencing the choice of route over the
point-to-point network. Priority is considered before
any other route characteristic (direct connect link, dial
connection, number of hops, etc.) in choosing a route.
Links having higher priority values are chosen over
lower priority links. A default value of 50 allows for the
addition of either lower or higher priority nodes or
routes.
Default value: 50
Range: 1–99
Phone number
This is the telephone number of the destination node. It
is required if the destination is local and the link is a
dial link. Enter the telephone number as a combination
of decimal numbers (0 through 9), dashes, and the
following special characters:
/ Separator used for automatic call units
that have second dial-tone detect.
E Optional end-of-number indicator.
