Ethernet Ports

An Ethernet interface on the router is automatically configured by the software
modules when the router starts up. No user configuration of the Ethernet
interfaces is required, except to enable other software modules to use the
interface. This is achieved by adding a software module interface and using the
clause INTERFACE=ethn

,

where n is the number of the Ethernet interface

being configured

.

For example, to add a logical interface to the IP module,

enter the command:

ADD IP INTERFACE=eth0 IPADDRESS={ipadd|DHCP}

To display the modules in the router that are configured to use an Ethernet
interface, and the encapsulations used on an interface, enter the command:

SHOW ETH=n CONFIGURATION

where n is the number of the Ethernet interface.

For more information about Ethernet interfaces and encapsulations, see the
Interfaces chapter in the AR400 Series Router Software Reference.

Asynchronous Port

Asynchronous ports are normally used to connect a terminal to the router for
configuration purposes. The default values for configurable parameters are
modified by entering the command:

SET ASYN=port-number option

The factory default settings for asynchronous ports are shown in Table 7 on
page 62.
