IARP 

(Inverse ARP)

Write Security: 3; Read Security: 5
The Inverse ARP (IARP) field is only present when this is a frame-relay network 
interface. ATLAS always responds to Inverse ARP requests with its IP address for 
the requested DLCI.     

Far-End Address

Read Security: 3; Write Security: 5
The Far-End IP Address field is only present for frame-relay network interfaces, 
and it is only selectable when Inverse ARP is disabled.  The IP address of the 
device on the other end of the virtual circuit may be specified.  A static route to 
the far-end network will be added using the interface Subnet-Mask if nonzero.  If 
0.0.0.0 has been specified for the Subnet-Mask, a default subnet mask is used based 
on the class of the Far-End Address. (See also Subnet Mask on page 3-7.)

MTU 

(Maximum Transmit Unit)

Read Security: 5
Defines maximum number of bytes in a datagram transmitted over this interface.

RIP 

(Routing Information Protocol)

Configures RIP on this interface. 

Mode

Write Security:  3; Read Security: 5
Allows RIP to be enabled or disabled on a per-interface basis. 

If mode is Off, the following menus will not be visible.

Protocol

Write Security:  3; Read Security: 5
Sets the version of RIP being used on this interface.  The options are RIP V1 
and RIP V2.

Enable

Atlas sends Inverse ARP packets in order to determine the IP address on 
the other end of the virtual circuit.  If the Inverse ARP packet is 
responded to, a route is placed in the IP route table.When this field is 
set to ENABLE, ATLAS dynamically sends Inverse ARP packets to deter-
mine the IP address on the other end of the virtual circuit.  When an 
Inverse ARP packet is not responded to, a route is placed in the IP route 
table.

Disable

ATLAS responds to Inverse ARP requests with its IP address for the 
requested DLCI. If set to

 DISABLE

, ATLAS does not generate Inverse ARP 

request packets.  In this case, the 

Far-End Address

 parameter may be 

used to statically assign a route address (see 

Far-End Address 

on page 

3-8).

Tx Only 

RIP advertisements are periodically transmitted, but are not lis-
tened to on this virtual circuit.

Rx Only 

RIP advertisements are not transmitted on this virtual circuit, but 
they are listened to.

Tx and Rx 

RIP advertisements are periodically transmitted and are lis-
tened to on this virtual circuit.
