Step 2: Define the SONET port

Connect an Ethernet cable to the LAN Management port, and Telnet to the gateway using the
IP address configured in Step 1. Log in using the same username and password as in Step 1.
Configure the WAN port as SONET with the following command:
gateway:> config port wan 1 type sonet
You will be prompted for timing. If the gateway is to derive the clock from the SONET
equipment (i.e. when connected to an ADM), accept the default line-timing. If the gateway
will be generating the clock, change this value to internal-timing (i.e. when connected back to
back).

Step 3: Define the termination point

Decide if the wide area link will carry FC traffic, IP traffic, or both, then use ONE of the
following options:
FC traffic only
gateway:> config tp pos 1 create ch-c fc
IP traffic only
gateway:> config tp pos 1 create ch-c ip
IP and FC traffic
gateway:> config tp pos 1 create ch-c ip&fc
You will be prompted for several parameters depending on which option you choose. To carry
IP traffic, you will need to enter IP addresses and network masks for the WAN/SONET ports
on both gateways. These addresses must be on the same subnet, and should use addresses that
are not in use in the network. For example, use the addresses 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.1.2 for
the gateways, and use the network mask 255.255.255.0.
You can accept the default responses to the other prompts. If you want to rout IP traffic on the
link, you must enable RIP on this port:
gateway:> config tp pos 1 ip routing-protocol rip
