Router Configuration
The RouterFinder-T1 Router Setup menu has 14 buttons (two rows of five buttons plus one row with
four buttons) that enable you to display and change the protocol stacks, define the output of the
RouteFinder, perform network management functions, test the communications link, print messages
received from the target RouteFinder, and download setup information to the RouteFinder.
Three buttons in the bottom row open the Statistics feature, open the on-line Help system, and end
(Exit) a RouteFinder Setup session.
IP Port Setup
The IP Port Setup dialog box allows you to change the IP routing capabilities that were established
during the software installation. This dialog box contains four tabs: Ethernet, WAN 1 (T1), WAN 2, and
Advanced.
The Unnumbered Link option can be selected (checked) for the WAN ports for point-to-point links.
When selected, it disables the Port Address and Remote Address groups. Unnumbered links are
useful only between two routers; in this case, local and remote. When running RIP over a PPP link,
both ends of the link must be either unnumbered or numbered with the same IP subnet. An advantage
of not assigning an IP address to each WAN port is that you conserve valuable network and subnet
numbers.
