11.8.3 Port Configuration Summary

The following is the summary of the steps you may need to perform for each port
on the Multiprotocol Interconnect module:
1. Using Physical Port List panel assign a name to each LAN port.
2. For token-ring ports only, use the Physical Port Protocol Parameter panel to
3. Using the Logical Port Parameters panel assign a name to each logical port.

11.8.4 Configuring for Bridging Support

To configure the Multiprotocol Interconnect module for bridging, you must select
the Bridge Menu from the Configuration Menu . This panel allows you to display
and modify the configuration parameters relevant to the bridging function(s) of

token-ring port, this field will show tokenRing .
Attach Port and Detach Port
These parameters are used to attach/detach logical ports to/from WAN
physical ports. They are not applicable to LAN ports.
