Introduction to the DS3-Quad 10/100 RIOP Introduction to the DS3-Quad 10/100 RIOP The DS3-Quad 10/100 Routing Input/Output Processor (RIOP), as part of the VSR multigi- gabit switching router, allows you to connect a remote corporate network and up to four local Ethernet segments.
These cables require special tools to be built correctly. You can use your approved cable supplier or you can contact your reseller or your Compatible Systems representative for a list of cable suppliers. To have a cable built, use the following specifications: •...
1 stop bit and no Flow Control. v Note: The DS3-Quad 10/100 RIOP also has an AUX interface. This is a modem connection which should only be used in consultation with Compatible Systems Technical Support staff, who will provide instruction on its use.
Chapter 2 - Quickstart Instructions Chapter 2 - Quickstart Instructions This Quickstart chapter briefly discusses the major parameters that must be set in order to use the DS3-Quad 10/100 RIOP as part of your VSR multigigabit switching router. Detailed information on the meaning of the router’s parameters is provided in the Compa- tiView Management Software Reference Guide and the Text-Based Configuration and Command Line Management Reference Guide.
Chapter 2 - Quickstart Instructions Suggested for IP These parameters help supply information about the segment that the interface is connected to. With this information, routing can take place. • Set IP RIP 1, IP RIP 2 or OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) •...
Chapter 2 - Quickstart Instructions numbers you wish to configure) section. Use configure and set the Enabled, Area, and Node keywords in the DECnet Global section. v Note: Setting DECnet on for any port with the command line also sets DECnet on globally. In CompatiView you must set a global parameter and a port-specific parameter.
Note: Due to the complexity of BGP, configuration parameters for BGP are not given in this Quickstart. For help with BGP configuration parameters, and other configuration questions, refer to the Tech Support pages on the Compatible Systems Web site at: http://www.compatible.com/.
Dedicated line operation generally does not require additional parameters for operation. Frame Relay DLCI Mappings If you are connecting to another Compatible Systems router, this information is not required for Frame Relay operation. Compatible Systems uses IARP (Inverse Address Resolution Protocol) to dynamically generate this information.
Note: Due to the complexity of BGP, configuration parameters for BGP are not given in this Quickstart. For help with BGP configuration parameters, and other configuration questions, refer to the Tech Support pages on the Compatible Systems Web site at: http://www.compatible.com/.
Chapter 2 - Quickstart Instructions TB: Use configure and set the Mode keyword in the DECnet WAN 0 section. v Note: Setting DECnet on for any port with the command line also sets DECnet on globally. In CompatiView you must set a global parameter and a port-specific parameter. SMDS Configuration This section covers the settings required for SMDS (Switched Multi-megabit Data Service) operation of the DS3 WAN interface (IP only).
In addition to indicating certain router-wide operating conditions, they can also display port-specific information. v Note : Any continuous flashing pattern not noted in this chapter may be caused by a hard- ware failure. Please call Compatible Systems Technical Support if your router shows a hard- ware failure.
