Appendix C

Worksheets

This appendix contains worksheets to help you in your initial configuration of your GT 80. Use the worksheet(s) appropriate for your router's configuration. Your Internet Service Provider (ISP), network administrator, or Frame Relay provider gives you the information you need.

IP Addressing

Dialup PPP

Frame Relay

PC Settings

IP Addressing

You need the following IP addressing information for all routers.
What is the IP address for each of your router's Ethernet interfaces?

These addresses must be unique on the local Ethernets.

 ETH1: ______.______.______.______

ETH2:
______.______.______.______

What is the subnet mask for each of your router's Ethernet interfaces?

 ETH1:
______.______.______.______

ETH2:
______.______.______.______

What is the IP address and subnet mask of the WAN interface?

In place of an assigned IP address, you can use unnumbered IP or dynamic IP addressing.

In the command line interface, to set up
IP Address ____.____.____.____
Mask ____.____.____.____

I am using (choose at least one)

Notes:

(a) _____ RIP (Routing Information Protocol)

(b) _____ Default gateway of

(c) _____ Static route to

____.____.____.____

Address mask of

____.____.____.____

Via gateway

____.____.____.____

gateway_____

Dialup PPP

You need the following information to set up your router for dialup PPP.
My modem is

(The manual for your modem specifies this.)

 _____ Asynchronous

_____ Synchronous

The name for my modem is

Assign a unique name to your modem.
(You can use the manufacturer's name.)
______________________

The initialization string for my modem is

Since there are many brands of modems, each with its own idiosyncrasies, you must configure each modem that you add. Your router has default settings, which are adequate for most situations.

The Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ), available at www.openroute.com, has suggested initialization strings for the most popular modem brands.
______________________

The telephone number of the destination is

Destination name is

 _______________________

_______________________

For authentication, I am using

_____ PAP _____ CHAP

_____ Login sequence

Allow incoming calls?

 _____ Yes _____ No

Dial-on-demand

 _____ Yes _____ No

If yes, idle timeout: ____ seconds

Frame Relay

Your Frame Relay service provider gives you the information you need to set up your router for Frame Relay.

For configurations where you are running IPX or bridging over Frame Relay or using multiple Permanent Virtual Circuits (PVCs), OpenROUTE Networks recommends that you read the Frame Relay documentation in the OpenROUTE Online Library or review the online Help in the GT Setup Utility. The Online Library is available on the OpenROUTE Networks Web site at www.openroute.com or on the CD that comes with your GT 80.
What type of Local Management Interface (LMI) does your Frame Relay switch use?

GT 80 routers support REV1, ANSI, and CCITT. The default is ANSI. Most providers use REV1 or ANSI.
_____________

Use Frame Relay LAN Emulation (FRLANE)?

OpenROUTE Networks recommends that you answer No to this question and instead use Frame Relay Virtual Circuit (FRVC) unless you are using more than one PVC. If you use FRLANE, refer to the documentation mentioned above.

 _____ Yes _____ No

Circuit Name (1-23 characters)

 _______________________

Note: The following information must match the configuration of the Frame Relay switch to which your router is connected.

Circuit Number (16-1007)

 ________

Committed Information Rate (CIR) in bps (300 to 2048000). Default is 64000.
_______________ bps

Committed Burst Size (Bc) in bits (300 to 2048000). Default is 64000.
_______________ bps

Excess Burst Size (Be) (0 to 2048000).
Default is 0.
_______________ bps

Frame Relay access rate (internal clock speed)

(4800 to 2048000). Default is 57600.
_______________ bps

PC Settings

To set up your PC to communicate with your GT 80, you need the following information:
IP address for your PC
______.______.______.______

Subnet mask for your PC.
