This section describes how to configure the Flex-WAN serial interfaces
when connecting directly to IBM legacy equipment.
Before beginning this procedure, complete the following tasks:
Attach the Flex-WAN cable to the Flex-WAN serial interfaces and the
line equipment (either DCE or DTE).
Log on to the system with Network Manager privilege.
The Flex-WAN serial interface automatically detects the following
settings:
Line type — leased
Clock — internal or external
Connector type — RS-232, V.35, X.21, or RS-449
To configure the Flex-WAN serial interface with a DTE, follow these steps:
1 The default baud rate for the serial Flex-WAN interface is 64 Kbps. If you
need to change the baud rate, use:
SETDefault !<path> -PATH Baud = <kbps> (1.2-2048)
2 Set the owner of the port using:
SETDefault !<port> -PORT OWNer = BSC | ATUN | SHDLC | SDLC
See Using Enterprise OS Software for more information about IBM legacy
protocols.
The Ultra-WAN CSU/DSU interfaces can be configured in a variety of
ways. There is no default configuration for these interfaces.
Initially, these interfaces can be configured to connect to T1 or E1 lines.
Secondly, they can also be configured to run ISDN PRI dial, single-path
leased, or multiple-path leased (channelized). The parameters used to
configure these interfaces are known as connector-level path parameters.
These parameters are reviewed in the following configuration examples,
and they are also listed in the configuration file example in Appendix G.
The example ASCII configuration templates are provided on the
Enterprise OS 11.3.1 documentation CD-ROM for you to modify to meet
the requirements of your installation. Also see Appendix G for a copy of
these configuration templates.
