• Idle-Receive indicates that the line is receiving an idle signal.

• Wrong-Frame indicates that the remote end is configured for a different DS3 application.

For a RADSL line, Line-State can have one of the following values:

• Disabled indicates that the line is disabled.

• Active indicates that the line is up and operating normally.

• Does-Not-Exist indicates that the line is not installed.

• Disabled indicates that the line is disabled.

• Active indicates that the line is up and operating normally.

Link-Compression

Usage: Specify one of the following values:

• None specifies no link compression. In the Answer-Defaults profile, None is the default.

• Stac specifies an Ascend-modified version of draft 0 of the CCP protocol. In a Connection profile, Stac is the default.

• Stac-9 specifies draft 9 of the Stac LZS Compression protocol.

• MS-Stac specifies Microsoft/Stac compression (the method used by Windows95). If the caller does not acknowledge Microsoft/Stac compression, the MAX TNT attempts to use standard Stac compression. If the caller does not acknowledge Stac compression, the link uses no compression.

Dependencies: Only PPP, MP, and MP+ links support Link-Compression. Both sides of the connection must specify the same type of link compression. Otherwise, your setting has no effect.

Location: Answer-Defaults > PPP-Answer, Connection station > PPP-Options

See Also: PPP-Answer, PPP-Options, VJ-Header-Prediction

Link-Mgmt

Usage: Specify one of the following values:

• None specifies no link management. The MAX TNT assumes that the physical link is up and that all Data Link Connection Indicators (DLCIs) are active on the physical link. None is the default.

• ANSI-T1.617d specifies the link management protocol defined in ANSI T1.617 Annex D.

• CCITT-Q.933a specifies the link management protocol defined Q.933 Annex A.

Link-State

Usage: The Link-State setting can be Up, Down, or Unknown. The value can only be set by the Ethernet driver.

• Up specifies that the LAN interface can transmit and receive network traffic.

• Down specifies that the LAN interface cannot transmit and receive network traffic (for example, if the Ethernet cable is unplugged or the Ethernet hub on the interface is down).

• Unknown specifies the shelf-controller Ethernet interface.

See Also: Interface-Address, Link-State-Enabled, MAC-Address

Link-State-Enabled

Usage: Specify Yes or No. The default is No.

• Yes specifies that the MAX TNT deletes routes to an interface when Link-State is Down, and adds them when the interface comes up again.

• No specifies that the MAX TNT routes packets to an interface regardless of the Link-State setting. If the interface is down, the MAX TNT discards the packets. They cannot use an alternative route.

Location: Ethernet {shelf-N slot-N N}

See Also: Link-State

Link-Type

• The UNI (User to Network Interface) is the interface between an end-user and a network endpoint (a router or a switch) on the Frame Relay network.

• A DCE (Data Circuit-Terminating Equipment) is a device that connects the DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) to a communications channel, such as a telephone line.

• A DTE refers to a device that an operator uses, such as a computer or a terminal.

• NNI (Network-to-Network Interface) operation allows the MAX TNT to act as a Frame Relay switch communicating with another Frame Relay switch.

• DCE specifies a UNI-DCE connection. The MAX TNT operates as a Frame Relay router communicating with a DTE device. To the DTE device, MAX TNT appears as a Frame Relay network endpoint.

• DTE specifies a UNI-DTE connection. The MAX TNT operates as a DTE communicating with a Frame Relay switch, and performs the DTE functions specified for link management.

• NNI specifies an NNI connection. The MAX TNT performs both DTE and DCE link management. An NNI configuration allows two separate Frame Relay networks to connect by means of a common protocol.

Loadname

Usage: The Loadname setting is read only.

Example: loadname=load1

Location: Error

See Also: Index, IP-Address, IS-Post, Shelf, Slot, Stack-Trace, Type, User-Profile, Version

Local-Address

Usage: Specify an IP address in dotted decimal notation. Separate the optional subnet mask from the address by entering a forward slash. The address must be unique to the connection. You can assign a fake IP address or an IP address from one of the local subnets. The MAX TNT accepts IP packets destined for the specified address and treats them as destined for the system itself. The packets might arrive on any interface, and the destination numbered interface need not be in the active state. The default is 0.0.0.0, which indicates an unnumbered interface.

Example: set local-address=10.2.3.4/24

Dependencies: The Local-Address value cannot be an address assigned in an IP-Interface profile to one of the MAX TNT unit's physical LAN interfaces, nor can it be the IP address of the shelf-controller Ethernet port.

Location: Connection station > IP-Options

See Also: IP-Options, Remote-Address

Local-Echo

Local-echo mode is a line-by-line mode. The line appears as the user types it, but is not transmitted until the user enters a carriage return. If local echo is enabled, the line transmitted is echoed on the local MAX TNT terminal screen.

Local echo allows MAX TNT terminal-server users to connect to nonstandard Telnet ports and programs. If the remote server turns local echo on or off in its option negotiation for a Telnet session, the negotiated setting overrides the value of Local-Echo.

Usage: Specify Yes or No. The default is No.

• Yes turns on local echo.

• No disables local echo.

Dependencies: If terminal services are disabled, Local-Echo does not apply. A terminal-server user can override the Local Echo setting from the command line by using the -e option of the Telnet command.

Location: Terminal-Server > Terminal-Mode-Configuration > Telnet-Options

See Also: Telnet-Options, Terminal-Mode-Configuration

Local-Profiles-First

Usage: Specify one of the following settings:

• LPF-Yes (the default) specifies that the MAX TNT first attempts to authenticate the connection with a local profile. If the profile exists and the password matches, the MAX TNT allows the connection. If no local profile exists, or if a local profile exists but the password fails, the MAX TNT tries to authenticate the connection through an external authentication server.

• LPF-No specifies that the MAX TNT first tries to authenticate the connection through a remote authentication server. If the server acknowledges the request, it allows the connection. If the server NAKs the request and remote authentication fails (because no remote profile exists, or a remote profile exists but the password fails), or if the remote authentication server cannot be reached, the MAX TNT attempts to authenticate the connection with a local profile.

• LPF-RNo specifies that the MAX TNT first tries to authenticate the connection through a remote authentication server. If the profile exists and the password matches, the MAX TNTallows the connection. If the server doesn't respond, the MAX TNT checks for a matching local profile. If the server NAKs the request and remote authentication fails, the MAX TNT terminates the connection.

Dependencies: Consider the following:

• If Auth-Type=None, Local-Profiles-First does not apply.

• PAP-Token authentication does not produce a challenge with a local profile. Using a local profile defeats the security of using PAP-Token.

• When you use a local profile, PAP-Token-CHAP brings up one channel, but all other channels fail.

• If the remote end of the connection has ever been authenticated with a challenge, Cache-Token does not work with a local profile. If the remote end has never been authenticated, no problem occurs when using a local profile.

• When you set Local-Profiles-First=LPF-No, the MAX TNT waits for the remote authentication to time out before attempting to authenticate locally. This timeout might take longer than the timeout specified for the connection and could cause all connection attempts to fail. Therefore, set the authentication timeout value low enough to guard against the line going down, but high enough to permit the unit to respond if it can. The recommended time is 3 seconds.

See Also: Auth-Timeout, Auth-Type

Location

Usage: Specify text describing where the MAX TNT is located. You can enter up to 80 characters. The default is null.

Example: set location=building 64

Location: SNMP

See Also: Contact

Log

Usage: Use the Read and List commands to make Log the working profile and list its contents. For example:

admin> read log

LOG read

admin> list

save-level=info

save-number=100

call-info=none

syslog-enabled=no

host=0.0.0.0

port=514

facility=local0

syslog-format=tnt

admin> write

LOG written

Log-Display-Level

Usage: Specify one of the following settings:

Setting	Lowest-level message indicates
None (the default)	The MAX TNT does not display log messages.
Emergency	The unit has an error condition and is unlikely to be operating normally.
Alert	The unit has an error condition but is still operating normally.
Critical	An interface has gone down or a security error has occurred.
Error	An error event has occurred.
Warning	An unusual event has occurred, but the unit is otherwise operating normally. For example, this type of message appears when a login attempt has failed because the user entered an incorrect user name or password.
Notice	Events of interest in normal operation have occurred (a link going up or down, for example).
Info	State and status changes that are commonly not of general interest have occurred.
Debug	Helpful debugging information.

Example: set log-display-level=debug

Dependencies: Do not confuse Log-Display-Level with Save-Level in the Log profile. Save-Level determines which messages are displayed in the event-log status window.

Location: User name

See Also: Log, Save-Level

Login-Prompt

Description: If Prompt-Format=No, you can specify up to 15 characters, not including a newline or tab character.

If Prompt-Format=Yes, you can specify up to 80 characters in multiple lines by including the newline (\n) and tab (\t) characters. To include an actual backslash character, you must precede it with another backslash. For example, suppose you enter the following string:

Welcome to\n\t\\Ascend Remote Server\\\nEnter your user name:

Welcome to

	\Ascend Remote Server\

Enter your user name:

Example: set login-prompt=Login Name:

Dependencies: If terminal services are disabled, Login-Prompt does not apply.

Location: T1-Stat {shelf-N slot-N N}

See Also: AIS-Receive, BER-Receive, Carrier-Established, Loss-Of-Carrier, Yellow-Receive

LQM

Usage: Specify Yes or No. The default is No.

• Yes specifies that the MAX TNT requests link-quality monitoring.

• No specifies that the MAX TNT does not request link-quality monitoring.

Dependencies: The LQM value applies only to PPP links.

Location: Answer-Defaults > PPP-Answer, Connection station > PPP-Options

See Also: LQM-Maximum-Period, LQM-Minimum-Period, PPP-Answer, PPP-Options

LQM-Maximum-Period

Usage: Specify a number from 0 to 600. The default is 600.

Example: set lqm-maximum-period=300

Dependencies: If LQM=No, LQM-Maximum-Period does not apply.

Location: Answer-Defaults > PPP-Answer, Connection station > PPP-Options

See Also: LQM, LQM-Minimum-Period, PPP-Answer, PPP-Options

LQM-Minimum-Period

Usage: Specify a number from 0 to 600. The default is 600.

Example: set lqm-minimum-period=200

Dependencies: If LQM=No, LQM-Minimum-Period does not apply.

Location: Answer-Defaults > PPP-Answer, Connection station > PPP-Options

See Also: LQM, LQM-Maximum-Period, PPP-Answer, PPP-Options

M

MAC-Address

Usage: In most cases, the MAC-Address value is obtained from the system. However, you can clone a profile by reading an existing one and changing its physical address.

Example: set mac-address=00:c0:6c:4e:ac:5a

Location: Ether-Info {shelf-N slot-N N}

See Also: Interface-Address, Link-State

Maintenance-State

Usage: Specify Yes or No. The default is No.

• Yes quiesces the line, making it available for maintenance when all active calls have been dropped.

• No specifies that the line is available for active service. If you specify No after the line has been quiesced, it returns to service.

Dependencies: If the line's Signaling-Mode is not ISDN, Maintenance-State does not apply. When the MAX TNT reboots, all T1 PRI lines come up available for service.

Location: T1 {shelf-N slot-N N} > Line-Interface

See Also: Line-Interface, Signaling-Mode

Major-Firmware-Ver

Usage: The Major-Firmware-Ver setting is read only.

Location: ADSL-Cap-Status {shelf-N slot-N N}, SDSL-Status {shelf-N slot-N N}

See Also: Dev-Line-State, Down-Stream-Constellation, Down-Stream-Operational-Baud, Down-Stream-Rate, Hardware-Ver, IF-Group-Index, Minor-Firmware-Ver, Physical-Address, Unit-Type, Up-Stream-Constellation, Up-Stream-Rate

Mask

After translating Mask and Value into binary format, the MAX TNT applies the mask to the specified value by performing a logical AND. The mask hides the bits that appear behind each binary 0 (zero) in the mask. A mask of all ones (FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF) masks no bits, so the full specified value must match the packet contents.

Usage: Specify a hexadecimal number of up to 12 bytes. The default is 000000000000.

Example: offset=2
len=8
more=no
comp-neq=no
mask=0f:ff:ff:ff:00:00:00:f0:00:00:00:00
value=07:fe:45:70:00:00:00:90:00:00:00:00

Suppose you want to apply these Gen-Filter settings to the following packet contents:

2A 31 97 FE 45 70 12 22 33 99 B4 80 75

The MAX TNT applies the mask as shown below, resulting in a value that matches the Value setting.

The packet matches the filter. Because Forward=No, the MAX TNT drops the packet. The byte comparison works as follows:

• The first two bytes, 2A and 31, are ignored because of the two-byte offset.

• The 9 in the third byte is ignored, because the mask has a 0 (zero) in its place. The 7 in the third byte matches the 7 in the Value setting for that byte.

• The F and E in the fourth byte match the Value setting for that byte.

• The 4 and 5 in the fifth byte match the Value setting for that byte.

• The 7 and 0 in the sixth byte match the Value setting for that byte.

• The 12, 22, and 33 in the seventh, eighth, and ninth bytes, respectively, are ignored because the mask has a 0 (zero) in those places.

• The first 9 in the tenth byte matches the Value setting of 9 in the first half of that byte. The second 9 in the packet's tenth byte is ignored because the mask has a 0 (zero) in its place.

See Also: Gen-Filter, Input-Filters, Output-Filters

Master-Shelf-Controller

Usage: Specify the number you set on the rotary switch. All shelves must agree upon the master shelf.

Example: set master-shelf-controller=1

Dependencies: If Shelf-Controller-Type=Master, Master-Shelf-Controller does not apply. You can set Master-Shelf-Controller for a slave shelf only.

Location: System

See Also: Shelf-Controller-Type

Max-Baud-Rate

Usage: Specify one of the following values:

33600-Max-Baud (the default)
31200-Max-Baud
28800-Max-Baud
26400-Max-Baud
2400-Max-Baud
21600-Max-Baud
19200-Max-Baud
16800-Max-Baud
14400-Max-Baud
12000-Max-Baud
9600-Max-Baud
7200-Max-Baud
4800-Max-Baud
2400-Max-Baud

Example: set max-baud-rate=31200-max-baud

Dependencies: If terminal services are disabled, Max-Baud-Rate does not apply.

Location: Terminal-Server > Modem-Configuration

See Also: Down-Stream-Operational-Baud, Modem-Configuration

Max-Call-Duration

Usage: Specify a number from 0 to 1440. The MAX TNT checks the connection once per minute, so the actual time the call is connected is slightly longer than the time you set. The default is 0 (zero), which specifies that the MAX TNT does not set a limit on the duration of an incoming call.

Location: Connection station > Session-Options

See Also: Session-Options

Max-Down-Stream-Rate

Specify one of the following settings to indicate the maximum down-stream rate the transceiver supports:

640000
960000
1280000
1600000
1920000
2240000
2560000
2688000
3200000
4480000
5120000
6272000
7160000

7168000

The CPE maximum down-stream rate defaults to 7,160,000. The COE maximum down-stream rate defaults to 2,560,000. To adjust the down-stream rates, configure the COE ADSL-CAP profile. The loop trains to the lower of the two rates.

If the loop quality is poor, the transceiver chooses a rate lower than the Maximum-Down-Stream-Rate setting. Good loop quality causes the transceiver to choose a rate close to or equal to the Maximum-Down-Stream-Rate setting. If the loop quality is very poor, the transceiver cannot train at all, and is unable to connect to the remote side. In the case of poor loop quality, you must specify a lower maximum down-stream rate, because the transceiver does not cross rate boundaries.

For example, if the transceiver is configured for 7,160,000 bps, and the loop quality is so poor that the transceiver cannot connect to the remote side, the transceiver does not automatically adjust the down-stream rate into the 5,120,000 bps range. You must configure the Max-Down-Stream-Rate to the lower rate.

Example: An administrator sets the maximum down-stream rate to 5.12Mbps:

admin> read adsl-cap {1 11 1}

ADSL-CAP/{ shelf-1 slot-11 1 } read

admin> set line-config max-down-stream-rate=5120000

admin> write

ADSL-CAP/{ shelf-1 slot-11 1 } written

admin> read adsl-cap-status { 1 11 1}

ADSL-CAP-STATUS/{ shelf-1 slot-11 1 } read

admin> list

physical-address*={ shelf-1 slot-11 1 }

if-group-index=0

unit-type=coe

dev-line-state=port-up

major-firmware-ver=232

minor-firmware-ver=0

hardware-ver=0

up-stream-constellation=256

down-stream-constellation=256u

down-stream-operational-baud=680

Dependencies: You can set the maximum down-stream rate for using SNMP utilities by writing the DownRate object in the AdslCapLineStatusEntry MIB. The DownRate object supports Read and Write operations. Valid values are 7168000, 5120000, and 2560000.

Maximum-Channels

Usage: Specify an integer from 1 to 32. The default is 2.

Example: set maximum-channels=5

Location: Answer-Defaults > MP-Answer, Connection station > MP-Options

See Also: Base-Channel-Count, Enabled, Minimum-Channels, MP-Answer, MP-Options

Maximum-Connect-Time

Usage: Specify an integer. The default is 0 (zero), which disables the timer. The maximum connect time for an ARA connection has nothing to do with the MAX TNT idle timer. If you specify a maximum connect time, the MAX TNT initiates an ARA disconnect when that time is up. The ARA link goes down cleanly, but remote users are not notified. Users will find out the ARA link is gone only when they try to access a device

Example: set maximum-connect-time=10

Dependencies: For Maximum-Connect-Time to apply, you must set Enabled=Yes in the ARA-Answer subprofile and ARA-Enabled=Yes in the ARA-Options subprofile.

Location: Connection station > ARA-Options

See Also: ARA-Enabled

MAXLink-Client-Enabled

Usage: The MAXLink-Client-Enabled setting is read only. Yes indicates that the MAXLink client software is enabled. No indicates that the MAXLink client software is not enabled.

Example: maxlink-client-enabled=enabled

Location: Base

See Also: Frame-Relay-Enabled, Modem-Dialout-Enabled

Max-Tunnels

Usage: Specify an integer. The default is 0 (zero). If you accept the default, the unit does not enforce a limit.

Example: set max-tunnels=5

Dependencies: You must set Profile-Type=Gateway-Profile for the Max-Tunnels setting to apply.

Location: Connection station > Tunnel-Options

Modem-Configuration

Usage: With Terminal-Server as the working profile, list the Modem-Configuration subprofile. For example:

admin> list modem

Modem-Dialout-Enabled

Usage: The Modem-Dialout-Enabled setting is read only. Yes indicates that modem dialout is enabled. No indicates that modem dialout is disabled.

Example: modem-dialout-enabled=yes

Location: Base

See Also: Modem-Configuration, Modem-Disable-Mode, Modem-Table-Index, Modem-Transmit-Level

Modem-Disable-Mode

Usage: Specify one of the following values:

• Enable (the default) enables the modem. When you change the value from Disable or DIS-Channel to Enable, the MAX TNT removes the modem from the Disabled list and places it on the Good or the Suspect list, provided that the Device-State and Admin-State are both enabled.

• Disable disables the modem. The MAX TNT moves the modem to the Disabled list. If the modem has an active call, it is not disabled until the call terminates. For idle modems, changes are effective immediately.

• DIS-Channel temporarily disables the modem and an arbitrary idle B channel of a T1 PRI line. The MAX TNT moves the modem to the Disabled list. If the modem card goes down, the MAX TNT restores a DS0 channel for each modem whose setting is DIS-Channel. Restoring a channel might take a few minutes.

  Even if the modem failed POST, the DIS-Channel setting still quiesces a DS0 channel. Although the modem cannot be made available, changing this setting to Enable restores the quiesced DS0 channel. If the unit has no T1 PRI lines enabled, the DIS-Channel setting has the same effect as Disable.

See Also: Modem-Configuration, Modem-Dialout-Enabled, Modem-Table-Index, Modem-Transmit-Level

Modem-Mod

Usage: Specify one of the following values:

• K56-Modulation specifies that a 56K modem card can operate at a normal rate.

• V34-Modulation specifies that a 56K modem card never exceeds V.34 speeds (33.6K) and does not send the V.8bis tone.

  To support the ITU standard V.8bis (Voice Call Ready), a 56K modem in the MAX TNT normally sends a tone at the beginning of modem training. This is commonly referred to as CRe, and is a dual tone (1375Hz + 2002 Hz), followed by a single tone at 400Hz, with a combined duration of approximately 500 ms. Although V.8bis is designed not to interfere with V.32bis modem negotiation (which supports a maximum rate of 14.4 Kbps), some V.32 and V.34 modems do not successfully complete modem training after reception of the V.8bis tone. When you set Modem-Mod=V34-Modulation, you suppress the V.8bis tone.

Modem-Table-Index

Usage: The Modem-Table-Index setting is read only.

Location: Admin-State {shelf-N slot-N N}

See Also: Modem-Configuration, Modem-Dialout-Enabled, Modem-Disable-Mode, Modem-Transmit-Level

Modem-Transmit-Level

Usage: Generally, you do not need to change the transmit level. However, when the carrier is aware of line problems or irregularities, you might need to alter the modem's transmit level by specifying one of the following values:

-13-dB-Mdm-Trn-Level (-13 dB, the default)
-14-dB-Mdm-Trn-Level (-14 dB)
-15-dB-Mdm-Trn-Level (-15 dB)
-16-dB-Mdm-Trn-Level (-15 dB)
-17-dB-Mdm-Trn-Level (-15 dB)
-18-dB-Mdm-Trn-Level (-15 dB)

Example: set modem-transmit-level=-13-db-mdm-trn-level

Dependencies: If terminal services are disabled, Modem-Transmit-Level does not apply. For a 56K modem card, accept the default of -10-dB-Mdm-Trn-Level.

Location: Terminal-Server > Modem-Configuration

See Also: Modem-Configuration, Modem-Dialout-Enabled, Modem-Disable-Mode, Modem-Table-Index

More

Usage: Specify Yes or No. The default is No.

• Yes links the current filter rule to the next one so that the filter can examine multiple noncontiguous bytes within a packet. The MAX TNT applies the next filter before deciding whether to forward the packet. The match occurs only if both sets of noncontiguous bytes contain the specified values.

• No does not link the current filter rule to the next one. The MAX TNT makes its forwarding decision solely on the basis of the current rule.

Dependencies: If you set More=Yes, the next filter must be enabled. Otherwise, the MAX TNT ignores the filter.

MRU

Usage: In most cases, you should accept the default setting for the connection. If you must change the default, specify a value less than the default value.

• For a PPP connection, the default is 1524. Accept the default unless the device at the remote end of the link cannot support it.

• For a Frame Relay connection, the default is 1532.

Location: Answer-Defaults > PPP-Answer, Connection station > PPP-Options,
Frame-Relay fr-name

See Also: PPP-Answer, PPP-Options

MTU-Limit

Mobile clients use standard MTU discovery mechanisms to determine the path MTU, and then fragment packets at the appropriate size. However, to transmit packets through an ATMP tunnel, the MAX TNT adds an 8-byte GRE header and a 20-byte IP header to the frames it receives. This action can make the packet size larger than the MTU of the tunneled link, in which case the MAX TNT must either fragment the packet after encapsulating it, or reject the packet.

Usage: To avoid fragmenting packets after encapsulating them, set MTU-Limit to a value that is 28 bytes less than the path MTU. If MTU-Limit is set to zero (the default), the MAX TNT might have to fragment encapsulated packets before transmission. The other ATMP agent must then reassemble the packets. If MTU-Limit is set to a nonzero value, the MAX TNT reports that value to the client software as the path MTU, causing the client to send packets at the specified size. Setting MTU-Limit to a nonzero value pushes the task of fragmentation and reassembly out to the connection endpoints, lowering the overhead on the ATMP agents.

Example: set mtu-limit=1472

Location: ATMP

See Also: Agent-Mode, Agent-Type, Force-Fragmentation, Home-Agent-Password, Retry-Limit, Retry-Timeout, UDP-Port

Multicast-Allowed

Usage: Specify Yes or No. The default is No.

• Yes enables the MAX TNT to respond to IGMP client requests and responses.

• No specifies that the MAX TNT does not respond to multicast clients on the interface.

Dependencies: If you set Multicast-Allowed=Yes and Multicast-Rate-Limit remains at the default of 100, the MAX TNT handles IGMP responses and requests on the interface but does not forward multicast traffic. You must set Multicast-Rate-Limit to a nondefault value before the MAX TNT can forward multicast traffic.

Location: Connection station > IP-Options, IP-Interface {shelf-N slot-N N}

See Also: IP-Global, IP-Options, Multicast-Forwarding, Multicast-Member-Timeout, Multicast-Rate-Limit

Multicast-Forwarding

Usage: Specify Yes or No. The default is No.

• Yes enables multicast forwarding.

• No disables multicast forwarding.

Dependencies: Consider the following:

• For Multicast-Forwarding to have any effect, you must set MBONE-LAN-Interface or MBONE-Profile to specify the interface on which the MBONE router resides.

• When the value of Multicast-Forwarding changes from No to Yes, the multicast subsystem reads the values in the IP-Global profile and initiates the forwarding function. If you modify a multicast value in the IP-Global profile, you must set Multicast-Forwarding to No and then Yes again to force a read of the new values.

See Also: Multicast-Allowed, Multicast-Member-Timeout, MBONE-LAN-Interface, MBONE-Profile

Multicast-Group-Leave-Delay

Usage: Specify a number of seconds from 0 to 120. The default is 0 (zero). If you specify a value other than the default, and the MAX TNT receives a leave group message, the unit sends an IGMP query to the WAN interface or client from which it received the leave group message. If the MAX TNT does not receive a response from an active multicast client that belongs to the client group, it sends a leave group message when the time you specify expires.

If you accept the default, the MAX TNT forwards a leave group message immediately. If users might establish multiple multicast sessions for identical groups, set Multicast-Group-Leave-Delay to a value of 10 to 20 seconds.

Example: set multicast-group-leave-delay=15

Dependencies: Multicast-Group-Leave-Delay applies only if you set Multicast-Forwarding=Yes and Multicast-Allowed=Yes.

Location: Connection > IP-Options, IP-Interface

See Also: Multicast-Allowed, Multicast-Forwarding, Multicast-Member-Timeout, Multicast-Rate-Limit

Multicast-Hbeat-Addr

When it runs as a multicast forwarder, the MAX TNT continually receives multicast traffic. Using heartbeat monitoring, you can monitor for possible connectivity problems by polling for multicast traffic. The MAX TNT generates an SNMP alarm trap if a traffic breakdown occurs.

Usage: Specify a multicast address in dotted decimal notation. The default is 0.0.0.0.

Example: set multicast-hbeat-addr=224.1.1.4

Dependencies: Consider the following:

• All the Multicast-Hbeat values interact to enable heartbeat monitoring. Heartbeat monitoring is an optional function. It is not required for multicast forwarding.

• Using the Multicast-Hbeat-Port, Multicast-Hbeat-Src-Addr, and Multicast-Hbeat-Src-Addr-Mask settings, you can fine-tune the specification for which packets the MAX TNT monitors.

See Also: Multicast-Hbeat-Alarm-Threshold, Multicast-Hbeat-Number-Slot, Multicast-Hbeat-Port , Multicast-Hbeat-Slot-Time, Multicast-Hbeat-Src-Addr, Multicast-Hbeat-Src-Addr-Mask

Multicast-Hbeat-Alarm-Threshold

Trap type:  TRAP_ENTERPRISE

Code:       TRAP_MULTICAST_TREE_BROKEN (19)

Arguments:

1) Multicast group address being monitored (4 bytes),

2) Source address of last heartbeat packet received (4 bytes)

3) Slot time interval configured in seconds (4 bytes),

4) Number of slots configured (4 bytes).

5) Total number of heartbeat packets received before the MAX TNT 
started sending SNMP Alarms (4 bytes).

Example: set multicast-hbeat-alarm-threshold=3

Dependencies: All the Multicast-Hbeat values interact to enable heartbeat monitoring. Heartbeat monitoring is an optional function. It is not required for multicast forwarding.

Location: IP-Global

See Also: Multicast-Hbeat-Addr, Multicast-Hbeat-Number-Slot, Multicast-Hbeat-Port, Multicast-Hbeat-Slot-Time , Multicast-Hbeat-Src-Addr, Multicast-Hbeat-Src-Addr-Mask

Multicast-Hbeat-Number-Slot

Usage: Specify the number of times the MAX TNT polls for packets. The default is 0 (zero).

Example: set multicast-hbeat-number-slot=5

In this example, if you set Multicast-Hbeat-Number-Slot to 5, and Multicast-Hbeat-Slot-Time to 3 seconds, the MAX TNT polls 5 times at 3-second intervals. After 60 seconds of elapsed time, it compares the number of multicast packets received to the alarm threshold.

Dependencies: All the Multicast-Hbeat values interact to enable heartbeat monitoring. Heartbeat monitoring is an optional function. It is not required for multicast forwarding.

Location: IP-Global

Multicast-Member-Timeout

When you configure the MAX TNT as a multicast forwarder, it forwards polling messages generated by the multicast router, and keeps track of active memberships from its client interfaces. If no client responds to the polling messages within the amount of time you specify for Multicast-Member-Timeout, the MAX TNT stops forwarding multicast traffic on that interface.

Usage: Specify an integer from 60 to 65535. The default is 360.

Example: set multicast-member-timeout=60

Dependencies: If Multicast-Forwarding=No, Multicast-Member-Timeout does not apply.

Location: IP-Global

See Also: Multicast-Allowed, Multicast-Forwarding

Multicast-Rate-Limit

Usage: To begin forwarding multicast traffic on the interface, specify an integer lower than 100. The default is 100, which disables the forwarding of multicast traffic on the interface.

Example: set multicast-rate-limit=5

In this example, the MAX TNT accepts a packet from multicast clients on the interface every five seconds. The MAX TNT discards any subsequent packets received in that five-second window.

Dependencies: If you set Multicast-Allowed=Yes and Multicast-Rate-Limit remains at the default of 100, the MAX TNT handles IGMP responses and requests on the interface but does not forward multicast traffic. You must set Multicast-Rate-Limit to a nondefault value before the MAX TNT can forward multicast traffic.

Dependencies: If Link-Type=DCE, N391-Val does not apply.

Location: Frame-Relay fr-name

See Also: Link-Type

N392-Val

Usage: Specify an integer from 1 to 10. The value you enter should be less than N393-Val. The default is 3.

Nailed-Group

Usage: Specify a number from 0 to 65535. The default is 0 (zero).

Example: set nailed-group=7

Dependencies: Do not associate a group number with more than one active profile. For a T1 or E1 line, channels in a nailed-up group must be contiguous. For an IDSL card, only one channel can be nailed up.

Location: E1 {shelf-N slot-N N} > Line-Interface > Channel-Config N,

Nailed-Groups

Usage: Specify a number assigned to a group of nailed-up channels. For an MP+ connection, you can assign more than one group number, separated by commas. The default is 1.

Example: set nailed-groups=1, 3

Dependencies: Only MP+ supports the use of multiple nailed-up groups.

Location: Connection station > Telco-Options

See Also: Call-Type, Nailed-Group, Telco-Options

Nailed-Mode

Usage: Specify one of the following values:

• FT1 (the default) specifies that the link uses only nailed-up channels.

• FT1-MPP specifies that the link uses a combination of nailed-up and switched channels.

• FT1-BO specifies that the link uses a combination of nailed-up and switched channels with backup and overflow.

In providing overflow protection, the MAX TNT supplies supplemental dial-up bandwidth during times of peak demand in order to prevent saturation of a nailed-up line. The circuit remains in place until the traffic subsides, and then it is removed.

Example: set nailed-mode=ft1

Location: Frame-Relay fr-name

See Also: Nailed-Up-Group

Nailed-Up-Group

Usage: Specify a number assigned to a group of nailed-up channels. The maximum value you can enter is 1024.

Name

Usage: Specify a descriptive name. For all profiles except the IP-Route, IPX-Route, and Trap profiles, you can specify up to 24 characters. For the IP-Route, IPX-Route, and Trap profiles, you can specify up to 31 characters. The default is null in all except User profiles, where the default is default.

Example: set name=newyork

Dependencies: If the MAX TNT uses the specified value for authentication, it is case sensitive. In the SWAN profile, the Name setting identifies the line for administrative purposes only. The unit uses only the Physical-Address setting to identify the SWAN line.

Net-Alias

Usage: Specify the IPX network number of the remote device. The default of 00000000 is appropriate for most installations. If you accept the default, the MAX TNT does not advertise the route until it makes a connection to the remote network.

Dependencies: If the MAX TNT does not route IPX for the connection, or if IPX routing is globally disabled, Net-Alias does not apply.

Location: Connection station > IPX-Options

See Also: Dial-Query, IPX-Header-Compression, IPX-Routing-Enabled, IPX-SAP-HS-Proxy, IPX-SAP-HS-Proxy-Net, Net-Number, Peer-Mode, RIP, SAP, SAP-Filter

NetBIOS-Primary-NS

Usage: Specify the IP address in dotted decimal notation. The default is 0.0.0.0, which indicates that no NetBIOS server exists.

Example: set netbios-primary-ns=10.1.2.3/24

Location: IP-Global

See Also: Domain-Name, NetBIOS-Secondary-NS

NetBIOS-Secondary-NS

Usage: Specify the IP address in dotted decimal notation. The default is 0.0.0.0, which indicates that no secondary NetBIOS server exists.

Example: set netbios-secondary-ns=10.57.24.11/24

Location: IP-Global

See Also: Domain-Name, NetBIOS-Primary-NS

Net-Number

Usage: Specify the IPX network number of the remote device only when the router requires that the MAX TNT know its network number before connecting. If you specify a value for Net-Number, the MAX TNT creates a static route to the device. In addition, the MAX TNT becomes a seed router, and other routers can learn the IPX network number from the MAX TNT.

If there are other NetWare routers on the LAN interface, the IPX number assigned to the MAX TNT for that interface must be consistent with the number in use by the other routers. The best way to ensure consistency is to accept the default null address for Net-Number. The null address causes the MAX TNT to learn its network number from another router on the interface, or from the RIP packets received from the local IPX server.

The default of 00000000 is appropriate for most installations. If you accept the default, the MAX TNT does not advertise the route until it makes a connection to the remote network.

Dependencies: If the MAX TNT does not route IPX for the connection, or if IPX routing is globally disabled, Net-Number does not apply.

Location: Connection station > IPX-Options

Example: network-management-enabled=yes

Location: Base

See Also: AIM-Enabled

New-NAS-Port-ID-Format

Usage: Specify Yes or No. The default is Yes.

• Yes specifies that the MAX TNT reports an NAS-Port value appropriate to the multishelf and multislot architecture. The value has the following format:

  shelf slot line channel
  

  where shelf indicates the shelf number (0-3), slot indicates the slot number (0-15), line indicates the line number (0-31), and channel indicates the channel number (0-31) for an ISDN call. For an analog call, the values are the same, except that the line number can be 0-63, and the channel number is always 1. When using the attribute for accounting purposes, you must add 1 to each component to ascertain the actual shelf, slot, line, and channel number.

• No specifies that the MAX TNT reports an NAS-Port value in the following format:

  tllcc
  

  where t indicates 1 for a digital call or 2 for an analog call, ll indicates the line number, and cc indicates the channel number.

Dependencies: If you set New-NAS-Port-ID-Format=No, the following conditions must be met:

• Multishelf is not supported.

• All line cards must be placed contiguously in the first slots of the standalone system. Lines must be numbered 1 through 8 for slot 1, 9 through 16 for slot 2, and so on.

NFAS-Group-ID

Some sites require multiple NFAS groups on a single card to enable grouped DS1s. An NFAS group contains a minimum of two PRIs, so the T1 card supports up to four NFAS groups, and the T3 card supports up to 14 NFAS groups.

Usage: For a T1 card, set NFAS-Group-ID to a value from 0 to 3. For a T3 card, valid values are from 0 to 13. Lines with the same NFAS-Group-ID value are in the same NFAS group.

Example: Two NFAS groups are configured on a T1 card, each containing four lines. This example uses the NFAS group IDs 1 and 2, but you can assign any valid NFAS-Group-ID values. The following commands configure NFAS group 1, which contains lines 1 through 4:

admin> read t1 {1 2 1}

T1/{ shelf-1 slot-2 1 } read

admin> set line signaling-mode=isdn-nfas

admin> set line nfas-id=0

admin> set line nfas-group-id=1

admin> set channel 24 channel=nfas-primary

admin> write

T1/{ shelf-1 slot-2 1 } written

Number-Complete

Usage: Specify 1-Digits, 2-Digits, and so on, up to 10-Digits, to specify up to ten digits of a phone number. Or, to indicate that the full number has been received, accept the default End-Of-Pulsing setting. For call-routing purposes, the digits received before the call is answered are considered the called number.

Example: set number-complete=end-of-pulsing

Location: E1 {shelf-N slot-N N} > Line-Interface

See Also: Line-Interface, Signaling-Mode, Switch-Type

O

Offset

Usage: Specify a number from 0 to 8. The default is 0 (zero), which indicates no offset.

Example: set offset=2

Output-Filters N

Usage: With a Filter profile as the working profile, list one of the 12 subprofiles. For example:

admin> list output 1

valid-entry=no

forward=no

type=generic-filter

gen-filter={ 0 0 no no 00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00 00:00:00:+

valid-filter=no

type-filter=exclude

server-type=00:00

server-name=""

admin> list ..

See Also: Server-Name, Server-Type, Type-Filter, Valid-Filter

P

Parallel-Dialing

Usage: Specify an integer from 1 to 65535. If the MAX TNT has trouble establishing an initial connection at the full bandwidth for calls from the U.S. to another country, reduce Parallel-Dialing to a value of 1. For ADSL or SDSL operation, you must set Parallel-Dialing to the number of ADSL or SDSL interfaces. The default is 2.

Example: set parallel-dialing=12

Location: System

See Also: Dial-Number

Password

Usage: Specify a text string of up to 20 characters. The default is null. The value you enter is case sensitive.

Example: set password=Ascend

Location: User name

See Also: Aux-Send-Password, Recv-Password, Security-Mode, Send-Password, System-Password , Telnet-Password

Password-For-Direct-Access

Usage: Specify a password of up to 64 characters. The default is null.

Example: set password-for-direct-access=mypassword

Dependencies: Consider the following:

• If Security-For-Direct-Access is not set to Global, the Password-For-Direct-Access setting is ignored.

• If Direct-Access=No, Password-For-Direct-Access does not apply.

See Also: Direct-Access, Port-For-Direct-Access, Security-For-Direct-Access

Password-Prompt

Usage: Specify up to 15 characters. The default is Password:

Example: set password-prompt=Your Password:

Dependencies: If terminal services are disabled, Password-Prompt does not apply.

Location: Terminal-Server > Terminal-Mode-Configuration

See Also: Login-Prompt, Prompt, Prompt-Format, Terminal-Mode-Configuration, Third-Login-Prompt, Third-Prompt-Sequence

Peer-Mode

Usage: Specify one of the following values:

• Router-Peer (the default) specifies that the caller is an IPX router.

• Dialin-Peer specifies a dial-in client.

• If you specify Dialin-Peer, the MAX TNT negotiates a routing session with the client by assigning the client a node address on the virtual IPX network defined by
  IPX-Dialin-Pool. The client must accept the network number that the MAX TNT assigns. If the client has its own node number, the MAX TNT uses that number to form the full network address. If the client does not have a node number, the MAX TNT assigns it a unique node address on the virtual network.

• For dial-in clients, the MAX TNT does not send RIP and SAP advertisements across the connection, and it ignores RIP and SAP advertisements received from the remote end. However, it does respond to RIP and SAP queries it receives from dial-in clients.

• If the MAX TNT does not route IPX for the connection, or if IPX routing is globally disabled, Peer-Mode does not apply.

Perm-Conn-Upd-Mode

Usage: Specify one of the following values:

• All (the default) specifies that, if they are fetched from the RADIUS server, all existing permanent connections will be torn down and reestablished.

• Changed specifies that only changed permanent connections will be torn down and reestablished.

Phone-Number

• In a Call-Route profile, the Phone-Number setting indicates "route any calls received on this number to me (the index address)."

• In a Frame-Relay profile, the Phone-Number setting indicates the number the MAX TNT dials to reach the switch.

• In a T1 or E1 profile, the Phone-Number setting assigns a channel an add-on number for outgoing calls.

1234567890()[]!z-*|

Example: set phone-number=1212

Dependencies: If a nailed-up Frame-Relay datalink connection is in use, Phone-Number does not apply.

Location: Call-Route {{{shelf-N slot-N N} N} N},
E1 {shelf-N slot-N N} > Line-Interface > Channel-Config N, Frame-Relay fr-name,

See Also: Call-Route-Type, Channel-Config N, Index, Line-Interface, Preferred-Source, Trunk-Group

PHS-Support

Usage: The PHS-Support setting is read only. Yes indicates that PHS support is enabled. No indicates that PHS support is disabled.

Example: phs-support=yes

Location: Base

See Also: Countries-Enabled, MAXLink-Client-Enabled, Multi-Rate-Enabled, R2-Signaling-Enabled , Selectools-Enabled

Physical-Address

Usage: The physical address has the format {shelf slot item}, where:

Syntax element	Description
shelf	Specifies the shelf in which the item resides. If you are using a single-shelf system, the shelf number is always 1. For call-routing purposes, a value of 0 (zero) or any-shelf specifies any shelf.
slot	Specifies the number of the item's expansion slot. Physical expansion slots are numbered from 1 to 16, starting with 1 for the slot just below the shelf controller. The slot value 17, controller, or c specifies the shelf controller card. For call-routing purposes, a value of 0 (zero) or any-slot specifies any slot. For example, to address the first slot on shelf 1: { 1 1 0 }
item	Specifies an item, such as a digital modem or T1 line, on the slot card. Items are numbered starting with #1 for the leftmost item on the card. An item number of 0 (zero) denotes the entire slot. For example, to address modem #48 on a modem card in slot #2 on shelf 1: { 1 2 48 }

In most cases, the value of Physical-Address is obtained from the system. However, you can clone a profile by reading an existing one and changing its physical address. Use the List and Set commands to modify the Physical-Address value. For example:

admin> list physical

shelf=shelf-1

slot=slot-9

item-number=37

admin> set shelf=shelf-2

admin> set physical shelf=shelf-2

See Also: Device-Address, Interface-Address, Item-Number, Shelf, Slot

Ping

Usage: Specify Yes or No. The default is No.

• Yes enables terminal-server users to use the Ping command.

• No disables the Ping command in the terminal-server interface.

Location: Terminal-Server > Terminal-Mode-Configuration

See Also: PPP, Rlogin, SLIP, TCP, Telnet, Terminal-Mode-Configuration, Traceroute

Pool-Base-Address

Usage: For each pool, specify the base IP address of a block of contiguous addresses. The default is 0.0.0.0.

Example: set pool-base-address 3=10.207.23.1

Dependencies: Consider the following:

• An address in a pool does not accept a subnet mask modifier, because pool addresses are advertised as host routes. If you allocate IP addresses on a separate IP network or subnet, make sure you inform other IP routers about the route to that network or subnet.

• The number of addresses in the pool must be specified by Assign-Count.

• If you are using network summarization (by means of the Pool-Summary setting), the address you specify must be network aligned.

See Also: Assign-Address, Assign-Count, Must-Accept-Address-Assign, Pool-Name, Pool-Summary

Pool-Name

Usage: Specify a name of up to 11 characters. The default is null.

Example: set pool-name 1=newyork

Dependencies: If TACACS+ authentication is not in use, the MAX TNT treats a pool name specification as a comment.

Location: IP-Global

See Also: Assign-Address, Assign-Count, Must-Accept-Address-Assign, Pool-Base-Address, Pool-Summary

Pool-OSPF-Adv-Type

Usage: Specify one of the following values:

• Type-1 (the default) instructs the MAX TNT to import the pool addresses into OSPF as external Type-1 routes.

• Type-2 instructs the MAX TNT to import the pool addresses into OSPF as external Type-2 routes.

• Internal instructs the MAX TNT to import the pool addresses into OSPF as Intra-Area routes.

Dependencies: For Pool-OSPF-Adv-Type to apply, you must set Pool-Summary=Yes and enable OSPF. For a change in the Pool-OSPF-Adv-Type setting to take effect, you must reset the MAX TNT.

Location: IP-Global

See Also: Active, Pool-Summary

Pool-Summary

When Pool-Summary=Yes, the MAX TNT adds IP addresses from an address pool to the routing table as individual host routes, and summarizes the series of host routes into a network route advertisement. It advertises the entire pool as a route, and only privately knows which IP addresses in the pool are active. If a remote network sends a packet to an inactive IP address, the MAX TNT either bounces the packet back to the remote network or silently discards it.

When you use pool summarization, you significantly reduce the size of routing table advertisements.

Usage: Specify Yes or No. The default is No.

• Yes enables pool summarization.

• No disables pool summarization.

Dependencies: If you set Pool-Summary=Yes, you must create a network-aligned pool that adheres to the following rules:

• The value of Assign-Count must be two less than the total number of addresses in the pool. Add two to Assign-Count for the total number of addresses in the subnet, and calculate the subnet mask for the subnet on the basis of the total.

• Pool-Base-Address must be the first host address. Subtract 1 from the Pool-Base-Address to obtain the base address for the subnet.

admin> set pool-base-address=10.12.253.1

admin> set assign-count=62

admin> set pool-summary=yes

• When you subtract one from the value of Pool-Base-Address in this example, you get 10.12.253.0, which is a valid base address for the 255.255.255.192 subnet mask. (Note that 10.12.253.64, 10.12.253.128, and 10.12.253.192 are also valid zero addresses for the same subnet mask.) The resulting address pool network is 10.12.253.0/26.

• When you add 2 to Assign-Count, you get 64. The subnet mask for 64 addresses is 255.255.255.192 (256-64=192). The Ascend notation for a 255.255.255.192 subnet mask is /26.

Port

• In a Connection profile, the Port setting specifies the port on the login host to which TCP-Clear sessions connect.

• In the Terminal-Server profile, the Port setting specifies the port on the login host to which the user connects in immediate mode.

• In a Log profile, the Port setting specifies the destination port of the Syslog host.

Example: set port=23

Dependencies: In the Log profile, Port does not apply if Syslog is disabled.

Terminal-Server > Immediate-Mode-Options

See Also: Facility, Host, Immediate-Mode-Options, Save-Level, Save-Number, Service, Syslog-Enabled , TCP-Clear-Options

Port-Enabled

Usage: Specify Yes or No. The default is No.

• Yes specifies that theMAX TNT sends trap-PDUs to the host specified by Host-Address.

• No specifies that the MAX TNT does not send trap-PDUs.

Location: Trap host-name

See Also: Alarm-Enabled, Community-Name, Host-Address, Host-Name, Security-Mode

Port-For-Direct-Access

To dial out, a local operator uses Telnet to connect to the specified port. When the connection to the modem is established, the user can issue AT commands to the modem as if connected locally to its asynchronous port.

Usage: Specify a port number from 5000 to 32767. The default is 5000.

Example: set port-for-direct-access=23

Dependencies: If terminal services are disabled or Direct-Access=No, Port-For-Direct-Access does not apply.

Location: Terminal-Server > Dialout-Configuration

See Also: Dialout-Allowed, Dialout-Configuration, Direct-Access, Password-For-Direct-Access , Port-For-Direct-Access, Security-For-Direct-Access, Telnet

PPP

Usage: Specify Yes or No. The default is No.

• Yes enables the use of the PPP command in the terminal-server interface.

• No disables the use of the PPP command in the terminal-server interface.

Dependencies: If terminal services are disabled, PPP does not apply.

Location: Terminal-Server > PPP-Mode-Configuration

Preference

When choosing the routes to put in the routing table, the router first compares their preference values, preferring the lowest number. If the preference values are equal, the router compares the metric values, using the route with the lowest metric.

Usage: Specify a number from 0 to 255. A value of 255 prevents the use of the route, and is valid only for a WAN route specified by a Connection profile. Following are the default preferences for different types of routes:

• 0 (zero)-Connected routes

• 10-OSPF routes

• 30-Routes learned from ICMP redirects

• 100-Routes learned from RIP

• 100-Static routes

• 100-ATMP routes

See Also: Down-Preference, IP-Options, OSPF-ASE-Pref, OSPF-Pref, RIP-Pref, Static-Pref

Preferred-Source

Usage: Specify the address of a T1 or E1 channel. The default is null.

Example: set preferred-source={{1 7 7} 0}

Location: Call-Route {{{shelf-N slot-N N} N} N}

See Also: Call-Route-Type, Index, Phone-Number, Trunk-Group

Primary-Home-Agent

Usage: Specify an IP address in dotted decimal notation, or a symbolic hostname containing up to 31 characters. The default is 0.0.0.0.

If you specify a hostname, the MAX TNT uses the Domain Name System (DNS) to look up the host IP address. If the home agent requires a UDP port number different from the value specified by UDP-Port, you can specify a port value by appending a colon character (:) and the port number to the IP address or hostname. For example:

admin> set primary-home-agent=10.11.22.33:8877

admin> set primary-home-agent=home-agent.company.com:6969

Dependencies: You must set Profile-Type=Mobile Client for the Primary-Home-Agent setting to apply.

Location: Connection station > Tunnel-Options

See Also: Home-Agent-Password, Home-Network-Name, Max-Tunnels, Profile-Type, Secondary-Home-Agent , UDP-Port

Priority

Usage: Specify an integer. The default is 5.

Choose the DR- and BDR- election priority on the basis of each device's processing power and reliability. Assigning a priority of 1 or greater places the MAX TNT on the list of possible DRs and BDRs. A priority value of 0 (zero) excludes the MAX TNT from becoming a DR or BDR. The higher the priority value of the MAX TNT relative to other OSPF routers on the network, the better the chances that it will become a DR or BDR.

Example: set priority=10

Location: IP-Interface {{shelf-N slot-N N} N} > OSPF,
Connection station > IP-Options > OSPF-Options

See Also: IP-Options, OSPF, OSPF-Options

Private-Route

Usage: Specify Yes or No. The default is No.

• Yes makes the route private. The MAX TNT uses the route internally, but does not advertise it.

• No specifies that the MAX TNT advertises the route by means of routing protocols.

Location: IP-Route name, Connection station > IP-Options

See Also: IP-Options, IP-Routing-Enabled, OSPF, RIP, RIP-Mode

Profile-Name

Usage: Specify a text string representing the name of the Connection profile. You can enter up to 24 characters. The default is null.

Example: set profile-name=tim

Location: IPX-Route name

See Also: Active-Route, Dest-Network, Host, Name, Server-Node, Server-Socket, Server-Type, Ticks

Profiles-Required

Usage: Specify Yes or No. The default is Yes.

• Yes specifies that the MAX TNT requires a configured profile for all callers. The unit rejects calls for which it cannot find a configured profile.

• No specifies that if the MAX TNT cannot find a configured profile, it creates a temporary profile for the caller.

Dependencies: You cannot set Profiles-Required for terminal-server calls.

Location: Answer-Defaults

See Also: Local-Profiles-First, Receive-Auth-Mode

Profile-Type

Usage: Specify one of the following values:

• Disabled (the default) specifies that the connection is not used for ATMP.

• Mobile-Client specifies that the Connection profile is used to authenticate a mobile client.

• Gateway-Profile specifies that the Connection profile sets up a gateway-mode connection to a home network.

Location: Connection station > Tunnel-Options

See Also: Home-Agent-Password, Home-Network-Name, Max-Tunnels, Primary-Home-Agent , Secondary-Home-Agent, UDP-Port

Prompt

Usage: Specify a string to be used as a prompt. You can specify up to 15 characters. The defaults are as follows:

• In a User profile, the default is an asterisk, which causes the MAX TNT to substitute the value of the profile's name upon successful login. For example, for the admin profile, the prompt is admin>.

• In a Terminal-Server profile, the default is ascend%

Location: Terminal-Server > Terminal-Mode-Configuration, User name

See Also: Login-Prompt, Password-Prompt, Prompt-Format, Terminal-Mode-Configuration, Third-Login-Prompt, Third-Prompt-Sequence

Prompt-Format

Usage: Specify Yes or No. The default is No.

• Yes causes the MAX TNT to interpret carriage-return/linefeed and tab characters in the string specified by Login-Prompt.

• No causes the MAX TNT to ignore carriage-return/linefeed or tab characters in the string specified by Login-Prompt.

Dependencies: If terminal services are disabled, Prompt-Format does not apply.

Proxy-Mode

Because devices use ARP for local addresses, Proxy-Mode applies to WAN links only when the remote device is dynamically assigned an IP address that appears to be on the local network. The MAX TNT knows that packets addressed to that host must be routed across the WAN, but to other local routers and hosts, the address appears to be on the local network. Local TCP/IP software sees the IP address as local and sends out ARP requests.

You can turn on proxy mode to enable the MAX TNT to respond to ARP requests for "local" addresses that are actually across the WAN. When proxy mode is on, the MAX TNT responds with the interface's Media Access Control (MAC) address.

Usage: Specify one of the following values:

• Off (the default) specifies that the MAX TNT does not proxy any addresses.

• Active specifies that the MAX TNT uses proxy mode only for active connections.

• Inactive specifies that the MAX TNT uses proxy mode only for inactive connections.

• Always specifies that the MAX TNT uses proxy mode for all addresses.

Location: IP-Interface

Q

Queue-Depth

Usage: Specify a number from 0 to 1024. The default is 0 (zero), which means that the MAX TNT does not drop packets, no matter how far behind the SNMP subsystem gets. If the queue were to grow too large in a heavily loaded routing environment, the system could ultimately run out of memory.

Example: set queue-depth=32

Location: SNMP

See Also: RIP-Queue-Depth

R

R2-Signaling-Enabled

Usage: The R2-Signaling-Enabled setting is read only. Yes indicates that R2 signaling is enabled. No indicates that R2 signaling is not enabled.

Example: r2-signaling-enabled=no

Location: Base

Rad-Acct-Client

Usage: With External-Auth as the working profile, list the Rad-Acct-Client subprofile. For example:

admin> list rad-acct-client

acct-server-1=0.0.0.0

acct-server-2=0.0.0.0

acct-server-3=0.0.0.0

acct-port=0

acct-src-port=0

acct-key=""

acct-timeout=0

acct-sess-interval=0

acct-id-base=acct-base-10

acct-limit-retry=0

acct-drop-stop-on-auth-fail=no

acct-stop-only=yes

admin> list ..
