Configuring the Access Server Step 7 In most cases you will use IP routing. If you are using IP routing, you must also select an interior routing protocol. You can specify only one of two interior routing protocols to operate on your system using setup: Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP) or Routing Information Protocol (RIP). Enter yes (the default) or press Return to configure IP, and then select an interior routing protocol for IP: Configure IP? [yes]: Configure IGRP routing? [yes]: Your IGRP autonomous system number [1]: 15 Step 8 In this example, routing will be enabled on AppleTalk and IPX; IP has already been selected: Configure AppleTalk? [no]: yes Multizone networks? [no]: yes Configure LAT? [yes]: no Configure IPX? [no]: yes Configuring the Asynchronous Interface The access server is equipped with up to 16 asynchronous interfaces, which are referred to as lines in the setup dialog. The asynchronous lines must be configured to permit asynchronous devices to be connected to the access server. (See the sections "Asynchronous Protocols," and "Modems" in the appendix "Internetworking Primer.") The asynchronous ports on the access server are configured to allow connection by TTY devices, Remote nodes, and Remote LANs. A variety of devices can connect to the access server using the asynchronous lines. Terminals and remote nodes (such as PCs, Macintosh computers, workstations, and host systems) connect to the access server and make use of its services. The access server provides services allowing access to other asynchronous devices, such as printers, modems, or terminals. The following steps configure the lines on the access server to permit use of the asynchronous lines by the access server or remote devices: Step 1 Enter yes or press Return to configure asynchronous lines: Configure Async lines?
