This example illustrates the steps required to configure a pair of
AR745 routers to create a Novell
®
IPX internetwork, using the
router’s command line interface. In this scenario, PCs at a
remote office need access to a Novell file server at the Head
Office site. The two sites are connected by a PPP link over a
wide area link—either a dedicated leased line or an ISDN call.
BEFORE YOU START
1
Ensure that the routers to be configured are connected to
the wide area link, and that the wide area link is operational.
See
Getting Connected
for information about connecting the
router to different physical networks.
2
Connect a terminal to the console port (port 0) on each
router, as described in the
AR700 Series Router Quick Install
Guide
. Alternatively, you can connect a PC to the console port
and use a terminal emulation program like Windows™ Terminal,
or Telnet to the routers using a Telnet client. To use Telnet both
routers must be configured for IP. See
Configuring an IP Network
for details.
3
Login to the MANAGER account on each router, as
described in the
AR700 Series Router Quick Install Guide
.
4
Collect the information that you will need to configure IPX.
We recommend you photocopy the table below and fill in the
details. Pay particular attention to the following points:
