Applications 19 Basic Frame Relay Configuration North American P850s are configured to have frame relay enabled as the default setting. With frame relay enabled, the router will communicate over WAN connections to other frame relay units via frame relay Permanent Virtual Circuits (PVC).
Applications 20 Configuration: The default configuratio n for P850s shipped outside North American is to have frame relay disabled. To run frame relay on these routers, it must first be enabled 7 Fram.
Applications 21 Auto Learning the Frame Relay Configuration The P850 is pre-configured to query the frame relay service to auto- learn the LMI type and the PVC DLCI numbers.
Applications 22 Manual Configuration - LMI Type The LMI Type option allows you to manually specify the type of Link Management Interface in use by the Frame Relay service provider for the Frame Relay service. When the LMI type is set to none, the P850 simply creates frame relay packets and sends them on the defined PVC’s.
Applications 23 “Quick Start” Frame Relay Since the P850 auto-learns the frame relay configuration, only a couple of parameters need to be configured before the unit is fully operational as an IP router for frame relay.
Applications 24 By default, PPP is disabled for each of the newly created remote site profiles. If PPP encapsulation is desired, for example to use security, the PPP encapsulation option should be set to “enabled”. By default, when PPP encapsulation is enabled multilink is also enabled.
Applications 25 Basic Leased Line Configuration P850s shipped outside North America are configured to have a default setting as a leased line router. The P850 will operate as a PPP leased line bridge/router if the frame relay function is disabled.
Applications 26 Figure 2 - 2 Basic PPP Leased Line Configuration The following steps must be performed on the P850 unit. 7 Link Speed Location: Main Ä Configuration Ä WAN Set up Ä Link Set up Ä Link Speed The clock speed that the P850 will expect to receive from the DCE link device must be defined.
Applications 27 Bridge Connection. Once the link speeds have been configured, the P850 will attempt to establish the link connection to the remote site PPP router. The Bridge connection does not require any configuration for operation. IP Router Connection.
Applications 28 Should You Bridge or Route? When connecting two Local Area Networks together, the first question to ask is should I bridge or route? The decision to bridge or to route may be decided by how the existing networks have been already set up.
Applications 29 Configure as an Ethernet Bridge An Ethernet bridge intelligently forwards LAN traffic to remotely connected LANs across the Wide Area Network (WAN). Figure 2 - 3 Bridged Local Area Networks Ethernet bridges simply forward information based on Ethernet MAC addresses.
Applications 30 The P850 router also is pre-configured as an IPX router. This means that if you wish to bridge IPX traffic instead of routing it, you must disable the IPX routing function of the P850 router. Once IPX routing has been disabled, all IPX traffic will be bridged between partner bridges on the WAN.
Applications 31 The size of the subnet mask. defines the subnet mask by using the specified number to reserve a series of contiguous bit locations from the start of the entire IP address. These reserved bit locations are then used as the network portion of the IP address.
Applications 32 Configure as an Ethernet IP Router An Ethernet IP router is used to intelligently route Internet Protocol (IP) LAN traffic to remotely connected LANs across the WAN. Figure 2 - 4 IP Routed Local Area Networks IP routers forward IP frames based upon their IP destination address and an internal routing table.

Applications 34 Define an IP Default Gateway An IP default gateway is an IP router that is resident on the local IP network that this P850 is connected to and is used to route IP frames for destination networks that do not exist in the routing tables.
Applications 35 Define an IP Static Route Static IP routes may be defined when one specific router is to be used to reach a destination IP network. The static route will have precedence over all learned RIP routes even if the cost of the RIP learned routes is lower.
Applications 36 Define an IP Subnet Mask An IP network may be divided into smaller portions by a process called sub-netting. A subnet is specified using high end bits of the host field of the IP address for network addressing. This is done with a subnet mask.
Applications 37 Configuration: The mask size entered defines the size of the subnet mask from the start of the entire IP address. This allows subnet sizes from 0 to 24 bits. A subnet mask size of 8 in a class A address represents a subnet size of 0 or no subnetting performed.
Applications 38 less than or equal to 255, that is the maximum value of each 8-bit field. The IP address is first specified and then you will be prompted to enter the mask size. The mask size defines the subnet mask by using the specified number to reserve a series of contiguous bit locations from the start of the entire IP address.
Applications 39 Configure as an Ethernet IPX Router The P850 is preconfigured to operate as an IPX router when installed in an IPX network. The P850 router will learn the IPX network numbers from the local LAN and when the WAN connections are established, the P850 will route the IPX frames to the appropriate destination IPX network.
Applications 40 examined and looked up in the routing tables. Once the destination IPX address is found in the routing tables, the IPX router sends the IPX frame to the remote partner P850 router that is connected to the appropriate remote IPX network.
Applications 41 Novell Servers in One Location Only Some Novell LAN installations require that a remote LAN that consists of only Novell IPX clients be connected to a central LAN that contains the Novell servers and some more clients.
Applications 42 7 IPX Frame Types Location: Main Ä Configuration Ä IPX Routing Set up Ä Configure LAN Nets Ä Ethernet-II Frames Ä RAW 802.3 Frames Ä IEEE 802.2 Frames Ä 802.2 SNAP Frames Define the appropriate IPX network number for the appropriate frame type.
Applications 43 PPP Link Configuration Overview A PPP (Point to Point Protocol) connection between two routers may use a number of Network Control Protocols (NCP) for communication. An IP router connection will use the Internet Protocol Control Protocol (IPCP) NCP for all IP communications.
Applications 44 remote site profile settings. The WAN IPX network number is defined with the IPX Net option in the remote site profile settings. Unnumbered Links An unnumbered link does not use network addressing on the WAN link.
Applications 45 Configure Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol The P850 uses Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to allow users in a small office environment to simply enable DHCP clients on their workstations and power them up to get their proper initialization.
Applications 46 devices attached to the DHCP Server to be set. The number of addresses to be assigned must also be specified to a maximum of 253. With the DHCP Services and IP Address Pool defined, devices may be attached to the network (up to the maximum specified) and they will be automatically configured.
Applications 47 Configure Network Address Translation (NAT) Support is provided for Network Address Translation (NAT). Network Address Translation is a technique which translates private IP addresses on a private network to valid global IP addresses for access to the Internet.
Applications 48 The Translation Type option allows you to use Network Address Port Translation. 7 Translation type Location: Main Ä Configuration Ä WAN Set up Ä Remote Site Set up Ä Edit Remote Si.
Applications 49 Configure PPP Security The P850 provides support for both PAP and CHAP PPP security authentication. An outgoing user name, PAP password , and CHAP secret are defined that the P850 will use when responding to an authentication request from a remote site PPP router.
Applications 50 7 Security Database Entry Location: Main Ä Configuration Ä WAN Set up Ä Edit Remote Site Ä Security Parameters Ä Incoming PAP Password Ä Incoming CHAP Secret Ä Outgoing User Nam.
Applications 51 Configure Firewall The P850 provides Firewall security for restricting access between any two networks connected through the router. Firewalls are set up on a per connection basis for the LAN and remote sites.
Applications 52 also wishes to allow all of the TCP traffic from the branch office network to have access to the head office. Anyone in the corporation may have unrestricted access to the Internet. The following steps must be performed on the P850 to set up the firewall support as desired.
Applications 53 designated servers list allows you to quickly setup a firewall entry without having to figure out TCP port values. Next, the LAN firewall is set up to restrict access to the LAN. The firewall option is set to “outbound” to have the LAN firewall filter traffic from the P850.

Applications 55 Configure Remote Site Profiles for PPPoE Remote Site Profiles allow for the router to be configured to support PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) client on the router. The PPPoE feature on the Perle routers provide a PPPoE client support on Ethernet interfaces to a bridging DSL modem to the Internet.
56 To verify that PPPoE is enabled for this remote connection, view the read-only parameter Location: Main Ä Configuration Ä WAN Set-UP Ä Remote Site Set-Up Ä Edit Remote Site Ä Protocol Set-Up .
Applications 57 TCP mss option should decrease to 1452 bytes. Therefore when configuring the router for PPPoE, the remote site NAT configuration automatically adjust its TCP mss option to 1452 to accommodate this requirement.
Applications 58 To ensure that network traffic is routed to the PPPoE connection, the router must be configured to have the default IP gateway setup to your newly created PPPoE remote site connection.
Applications 59 QOS - Priority Queuing Priority Queuing (PQ) allows the users to configure the router to allow specific traffic bound for an outgoing interface to be prioritized into high, medium, normal and low queues. Packets sent to the high priority queue are serviced first, followed by the packets on the medium queue and so on.

61 3 - I NTRODUCTION TO F ILTERING The P850 provides programmable filtering which gives you the ability to control under what conditions Ethernet frames are forwarded to remote networks.
Introduction to Filtering 62 You may easily prevent stations on one segment from accessing all but a specific resource on the other segment; for this, “negative” filtering and the use of “Forward if Destination” would be appropriate.
Introduction to Filtering 63 The following operators are used in creating Pattern filters. - offset Used in pattern filters to determine the starting position to start the pattern checking. Example: 12-80 This filter pattern will match if the packet information starting at the 12 th octet equals the 80 of the filter pattern.
Introduction to Filtering 64 ( ) brackets Used in pattern filters to separate portions of filter patterns for specific operators. Example: 12-80&(14-24|14-32) This filter pattern will be checked in two operations.
Introduction to Filtering 65 Popular Filters S ome of the more commonly used pattern filters are shown here. Bridge Bridge pattern filters are applied to Ethernet frames that are bridged only. When the P850 is operating as a router, all routed frames will be unaffected by the bridge pattern filters.
Introduction to Filtering 66 Banyan Banyan (12-0BAD) (12-80C4) (12-80C5) IP Router IP router pattern filters are applied to IP Ethernet frames that are being routed. When the P850 is operating as an IP router, all IP routed frames will be checked against the defined IP router pattern filters.
