Enable Multicast

To enable IP multicasting, set this to Yes. The default value is Yes.

Enable RIP Poison

To enable RIP Poison, set this to Yes. The default value is No.

Type of Circuit

This represents the type of circuit defined. If the user connection is frame relay or
X.25, define it as WAN. If the circuit defined Ethernet, choose LAN.

Default Value: If the circuit number is 1, it is LAN; if the circuit number is 2 or
more, it is WAN.

Encapsulation Type

This must be configured when the circuit type is WAN. If this unit is to be
connected to non-TXPORT equipment, it must be set to 1490, for RFC1490, and
the non-TXPORT equipment must support RFC1490 over Frame Relay. The DLCI
number must also be configured. If this unit is to be connected to another
TXPORT unit, it can be set to PROP, for proprietary. This way, compression could
be enabled on the frame relay port, or X25 could be used as the WAN protocol. In
this case, the circuit name or the circuit connect name must be configured to
establish a logical connection with the IP router at the other end. The default is
PROP, for proprietary.

Circuit name

The circuit name is used to receive a logical connection from a remote IP router. It
must be configured only if this circuit receives a logical connection request.

Circuit connect name

The connect name is used to establish a connection with a remote IP router. It is
required if the encapsulation is Proprietary. It must be configured only on one side
of the IP router to IP router connection.

DLCI Number

This is required if the encapsulation is 1490. As written, this corresponds to the
DLCI number of the circuit defined.
