Configuring LAN Services

This section begins with an overall discussion of LAN services, and then gives specific procedures for configuring LAN service on the Passport 4400:

• Multiple IP Addresses
• User Core Router
• Inter-LAN Switching (ILS) and Passport 6400 Interworking
• Routing Procedures
• RIP/SAP Spoofing and WAN Optimization
• Optional IPX Routing Parameters
• Data Compression

Before You Begin

Before you begin, you need to obtain the following information from your Network Administrator:

• IP addresses for LAN and WAN on the Passport 4400.
• IPX network addresses for the frame types used on the local LAN.
• DLCI numbers for user service traffic on the Passport 4400.
• DNA prefix for the user core router for this Passport 4400.

Before the Passport 4400 unit can support LAN services, the following conditions must exist:

• The appropriate LAN connections must be made to the Passport 4400 Base Module, and the correct cables must be physically installed. Instructions for connecting the Ethernet port on Passport 4400 units may be found in Reference for the Passport 4400 Cables, 205678-A, or Reference for the Passport 4460 Hardware, 205677-A.
• A node profile must be established on the Passport 4400 (see Getting Started with Passport 4400, Release 4.1, 209664-A). The node profile allows the Passport 4400 to direct LAN traffic between nodes in the Passport network.
