Serial Line Internet Protocol (SLIP)
The Multiprotocol Communication Server software enables a user to run
Internet protocols over an asynchronous serial line, using the Serial Line
Internet Protocol (SLIP). SLIP is defined by the Internet RFC 1055. SLIP is
automatically enabled when the TELNET feature is enabled.
SLIP links can transmit and receive packets that have been compressed using
the Van Jacobson compression algorithm. Links using Compressed SLIP are
referred to as CSLIP links.
This chapter covers the following topics:
•
Configuring ports to use SLIP and CSLIP
•
SLIP sessions
•
Example configurations
Configuring Ports to Use SLIP and CSLIP
You must configure ports appropriately to support SLIP connections. The
settings that must be used depend on your SLIP application. Also, refer to
Chapter 2
to make sure that you are using the correct cables.
The basic tasks include:
•
Configuring modem support for SLIP links.
This task is only necessary when using a dial-in SLIP application.
•
Enabling SLIP/CSLIP at specific ports.
•
Assigning SLIP addresses.
Not all SLIP applications require the assignment of a SLIP address.
Configuring Modem Support for SLIP Links
You must make sure to configure the proper modem-related characteristics and
to use the correct cabling. Chapter 2 provides cabling details. Chapter 3 covers
how to set up a port to support dial-in, dial-out, or dial-back capabilities.
Enabling SLIP/CSLIP at Specific Ports
You must enable SLIP/CSLIP on individual ports. This task can be
accomplished by either by setting up the port to accept multiple protocols with
APD (covered in Chapter 2) or setting up the port so that only SLIP/CSLIP is
used on it, using one of the following commands:
DEFINE/SET PORT
port-list INTERNET SLIP ENABLED/DISABLED
DEFINE/SET PORT
port-list INTERNET CSLIP ENABLED/DISABLED
