Acp_Key; A_Router; Alarmsyslog; Allow_Broadcast - Bay Networks 5390 Administering

Configuration Parameters

a_router

The Ethernet address of the network's A_Router. The Model 5390 server uses this value as a hint
at startup. When a Routing Table Maintenance Protocol (RTMP) message arrives from this Ethernet
address, the Model 5390 server gleans the AppleTalk DDP address from the packet and tries to talk
to the AppleTalk router. The address is a hexadecimal Ethernet address, for example,
00-7F-12-33-44-55. The default is
00-00-00-00-00-00.

acp_key

This Model 5390 parameter defines the encryption key used to exchange messages between the
Model 5390 server and the security server. This parameter works only when the enable_security
parameter is set to Y and a security server is defined. The security server maintains the encryption
key for each Model 5390 server in the acp_keys file. The default for this string is "<unset>."

alarmsyslog

This T1 parameter enables or disables the T1 alarm event syslogs. A Y enables alarm syslogs, an N
disables it. The default is Y.

allow_broadcast

This asynchronous port parameter allows an asynchronous port to receive administrative broadcast
messages generated by the boot and broadcast commands. A Y enables this parameter, an N disables
it. The default is Y.

allow_compression

This asynchronous port parameter allows the Model 5390 server to use TCP header compression
on a SLIP or PPP line. Header compression occurs only if the other side of the serial link initiates
compression. A Y enables this parameter, an N disables it. The default is N.
C2-10
NOTE: The Model 5390 server and the security server can communi-
cate only when this parameter's value matches the Model 5390 server's
value in the security server's acp_keys file.
