tone definitions for a number of other countries to be used.The tones are played to a

VoIP endpoint at the direction of an external MGCP call agent. By default the call

progress are defined to match the United States standard call progress tones.

Tones are loaded via TFTP directly to the CMG Router card. All supported country

tones are provided on the software CD with the CMG Router. For more information see

<Osi> - Play CPD on the OSI signal only

Fax - Sets the fax handling for this endpoint.

Note: For the Fax to operate the following must be set:

ꢀ

CMG G.729A feature must be enabled, with a software key

Specified voice channel has Fax configured as T38reserved or T38

G.729A codec is enabled

<none> - Fax calls to/from the voice channel are handled as normal voice calls. Note: G711mu is

the only codec that will result in good fax and modem calls. In this mode echo cancellation must

be OFF for modem calls, and ON for fax calls.

<bypass> - Fax calls to/from the voice channel are handled using the fax bypass procedure (Gateway-

controlled fax bypass using NSEs). After a call is connected to the channel in voice mode, if a fax

tone is detected on the channel, the CMG will transmit NSEs to the remote gateway to tell it to switch

to a G.711 codec and then it will switch to a G.711 codec itself for that channel and disable silence

suppression. For the switchover to be successful, the remote gateway must also switchover to G.711.

The form of G.711 (mu-law or A-law) to which the codec is switched will be the form which has the

highest priority in the negotiated codec list. Note: Either G711mu or G711a must be on the

algorithm preference list for Fax Bypass to work.

<T38> - Fax calls to/from the voice channel are handled using T.38 method (Gateway-controlled

T.38 fax relay using NSEs) if DSP resources are available. When no DSP resources are available

(6 active T.38 fax calls) the card will reject the T.38 connect request and revert the channel to fax

bypass mode using the G.711 codec.

Voice Channels

<T38reserved> - Fax calls to/from the voice channel are handled using T.38 method (Gateway-

controlled T.38 fax relay using NSEs). Since this method pre-allocates DSP resources, the user can

only configure up to 6 T.38 connections per card.

Modem - Sets the modem handling for this endpoint.

<none> - Modem calls to/from the voice channel are handled as normal voice calls. Note: G711mu

is the only codec that will result in good fax and modem calls. In this mode echo cancellation

must be OFF for modem calls and ON for fax calls.

<bypass> - Modem calls to/from the voice channel are handled using the modem bypass procedure

(Gateway-controlled modem bypass using NSEs). After a call is connected to the channel in voice

mode, if a modem tone is detected on the channel, the CMG will transmit NSEs to the remote gateway

to tell it to switch to a G.711 codec and then it will switch to a G.711 codec itself for that channel and

disable silence suppression. For the switchover to be successful, the remote gateway must also

switchover to G.711. The form of G.711 (mu-law or A-law) to which the codec is switched will be

the form which has the highest priority in the negotiated codec list, or the one offered by the far end

gateway. Note: for modem calls (not fax calls), the gateway that initiated the bypass

(terminating gateway) then sends a "Disable echo cancellation" NSEs (193). After this both

gateways should turn off echo cancellation.

Signaling Type

<FXS LS> - FXS Loop Start. Default.

<FXS GS> - FXS Ground Start.

Short Inter Digit - Configures the short interdigit user dialing timeout on a voice channel. This

is the time allowed between dialed digits when the T or I address template specification is in effect.

For example, if the address specification is "xxxxT", and 4 digits have been dialed, this short timeout

is in effect. If the timer expires, the call will be routed to the destination. If another digit is dialed

before the timer expires, address processing will continue, using the long interdigit timeout. The

range is 1-10 seconds, with a default of 4.

Long Inter Digit - Configures the short interdigit user dialing timeout on a voice channel. This

is the total time allowed between dialed digits after the first, unless short timing is in effect. If the

originator does not dial the next digit in this time period, the call is torn down. The range is 1-60

seconds, with a default of 16.

Echo Cancellation - Enables/disables echo cancellation as the default for voice calls for a voice

channel.

<Disabled> - Disable echo cancellation as the default for voice calls.

<Enabled> - Enables echo cancellation as the default for voice calls. Default.

Echo Tail (ms) - Defines the maximum round-trip delay expected in the voice path between the

CMG and the phone, including acoustical delay at the phone. Options are: <8>, <16>, <24>, <32>

effect. For example, if the address specification is "xxxxT", and 4 digits have been dialed, this short

timeout is in effect. If the timer expires, the call will be routed to the destination. If another digit is

dialed before the timer expires, address processing will continue, using the long interdigit timeout.

Enter the number of seconds (1-10). The default is 4.

Long Inter Digit

Specify the total time allowed between dialed digits after the first, unless short timing is in effect. If

the originator does not dial the next digit in this time period, the call is torn down. Enter the number

of seconds (1-60). The default is 16.

LAN (Local) Profile Setup

The LAN Profile is the largest, most detailed portion of the Router software. The fields

on this screen allow definition of how data transmission will occur on the unit’s LAN

port. This includes defining the protocol(s) that it will use to send and receive data,

defining security protocols, specifying which LAN servers and networks will be

advertised to WAN units, and establishing specific data filtering options.

The LAN profile is used in conjunction with the WAN profiles. The WAN profiles

identify which remote units the local unit can communicate with, as well as the data

transmission requirements of each remote.

In addition to the fields on this screen, there are several other areas that directly relate

to the communication abilities of the Adit unit. You may use the fields at the bottom of

this screen to access the following areas:

ꢀ Defining static addresses at the local unit

ꢀ Establishing static networks

ꢀ Establishing Remote (WAN) advertising

ꢀ Establishing DHCP Server/BOOTP Relay Agent parameters

ꢀ Defining data filters

The Router can accommodate a maximum of 500 filters, such as those created when

establishing static routes or data filters. The following entries consume a filter:

ꢀ Configured address, custom and protocol filters

ꢀ Static IP networks and static IPX networks

ꢀ Enabling any learned items listed on the Advertise Network/Server screen or

Filter Network/Server screen

ꢀ Static IP and MAC Addresses

ꢀ Firewall filters

In a large network, it is necessary to selectively use of each of these options so that the

number of configured filters is within the maximum allowed.

The Local Profile is used to define the Local (LAN) port parameters for the unit at the

present location.

Profile Setup for (LocalUnit)

The (LocalUnit) is the default name for this unit and will be used during the authentication

process to ensure this unit’s identity. This name can easily by changed by simply typing over

the "LocalUnit" and saving when closing this window. This name can be up to 11 characters.

Protocol

This column includes three protocol options, IP, IPX and Other. These protocols are used to

define Frame Types and LAN Network Updates to be used by this Adit unit.

Frame Types

Define the frame type of the packets that are sent and received by the Adit. If a packet is received

formatted in a frame type that has not been enabled, the Adit will not accept the data.

NOTE: Multiple frame types may be supported simultaneously for IPX and

Other protocols.

802.2

When selected (X) this Adit may send and receive packets that match the 802.2 format. The 802.2

format complies with IEEE specifications.

Eth II

When selected (X) this Adit may send and receive packets that match the Ethernet II format. Note

that the IP protocol commonly uses this format.

SNAP

When selected (X) this Adit may send and receive packets that match the SNAP (Subnet Network

Address Protocol) format.

802.3

When selected (X) this Adit may send and receive packets that match Novell’s X802.3 format.

LAN Network Updates

Use the LAN Network Updates field to determine whether the Local (LAN) unit will learn, via

RIP and SAP packets, which networks and services are attached to the local LAN, and whether

Remote (WAN) networks and services will be advertised to the LAN. If this information is

learned, it may be advertised to remote devices if advertising is established. Use the

[SPACEBAR] to select from the following options: <Both>, <Neither>, <Send> and

<Receive>.

LAN IP:

IP Address

This is the IP Address of this Adit, used to uniquely identify the device on the internetwork. The

default for this IP Address is 10.0.0.1

Subnet Mask

A subnet mask determines which bits in the IP address are used to identify the network number.

The default for the Subnet Mask is 255.0.0.0.

Default Router

This is an optional entry depending on your network configuration. Use this field to identify a

router that is physically connected to your LAN. If the Adit receives a packet which contains a

network that is not known, the packet will be sent to the router identified in this field.

If there are other routers and networks behind the Default Router add Static Network IP

information with the Default Router as the Default Gateway.

If you are communicating with different network domains, you will need to enter the IP Address

of your Adit as the default router on each workstation or make sure that the local router will

redirect to the Adit when appropriate, so that they may use the Adit to reach the remote site.

LAN IPX:

These fields enable the Adit to route IPX to Remote (WAN) networks, even if an IPX server

does not exist on the local LAN. Typically, the Adit will learn its external network number.

However, if the local LAN does not have a server or if the LAN NETWORK UPDATES field

(see above) is set to <Neither>, and you wish to route IPX to Remote (WAN) networks, the

external network number must be defined using these fields.

If you are not using IPX on your LAN, these fields will not apply. Please note that these

are all hexadecimal entries. For the following see you network administrator for the

appropriate numbers. If the frame type is unsupported leave the field set to 0s.

802.2 Ext. Network

Enter the corresponding IPX external network number.

Ethernet II Ext. Network

Profile Directory:Local Profile

Static Networks

Static networks allow fixed, or pre-determined routes, which increases the control over

routing choices within your network. Although Adit units are able to dynamically learn

routing information through RIP packets, you may wish to disable this feature and

manually enter fixed routes. (Disable Learning by choosing the <Neither> option in

the LAN Network Updates field on the Local (LAN) Profile Setup screen.) Static

routing may be preferred if:

ꢀ Routers within a network are not configured to advertise, thereby escaping the

automatic learning capabilities of the Adit unit

ꢀ Advertising is disabled so that access to certain networks may be restricted for

security purposes or, to decrease traffic on the LAN and across the WAN

ꢀ You wish to keep routing tables small in order to increase LAN/WAN

performance

Static routing may also be preferable when managing large networks. Often times it is

easier to disable the learning mode and manually enter routes, rather than review each

routing table entry and determine its advertising status.

As a static routing example, let’s assume that we have three networks, A, B and C.

Network B, is connected to Network C via a router, and to Network A via a remote

Adit. Network B may not learn of Network A’s existence if advertising was disabled

on Router 1. Therefore, if you wish to establish an entry in the routing table indicating

a route between Network B and Network C, you can define a static route on Network B.

Static Networks

To continue with this example, if Network B is not configured to advertise Network C

to Network A, then Network A will not dynamically learn of Network C’s existence. If

you wish to establish a route on Network A to Network C, you must define a static route

on Network A that indicates that Network C may be accessed through remote Adit B.

To set up a static route, you must define the following routing information:

ꢀ The address of the network you wish to reach;

ꢀ How far away from the local LAN the network is located (in terms of metric

measurement or hops, depending on the protocol)

ꢀ Whether the network can be reached on the local LAN (via the LAN port) or

through a remote unit.

If you are using the local LAN, you will also need to define the address (either IP or

MAC, depending on the protocol) of the first gateway (i.e. Adit or router) you will use

to reach the network you are defining.

It is important to note that if the static network is reached via a remote unit, it must be

defined by choosing the SETUP <Static Networks> option on the corresponding

Remote (WAN) Profile Setup screen. Static networks that are reached via the local

LAN must be defined by choosing the SETUP <Static Networks> option on the Local

(LAN) Profile Setup screen.

NOTE: All static routes are considered filters and will be applied toward the

maximum allowable number of 500 filters.

Static Networks

Subnet Mask

A subnet mask determines which bits in the IP address are used to identify the network number.

It is also a method of extending the IP Network Address so that a site may use one network

address for several different networks.

Metric

A numeric value indicating the distance from a local network to the destination network.

Originally this measured by the number of gateways between the two networks, the number may

be modified, either higher or lower, to indicate a desired priority. To ensure a route is considered

primary, the value must be less than that of a secondary route. This field is only used on IP

networks. Range 1 to 15. (Please note that a value of 1 usually indicates a direct network.)

Hops

See Metric, above. When defining the number of hops in a given route, remember to increment

the actual number by 1, since your locally attached unit is counted as “1”. This field is only used

on IPX networks. Range 1 to 15.

Ticks

Indicates the distance between two networks as measured in time increments

(1/18th of a second). Only IPX Networks use this information. Like hops, ticks may be used to

designate primary and secondary routes to the same network. Although both the hops and ticks

values are considered when determining routing priority, for Novell networks, the tick value is

considered first. To designate routing priority between two routes, the preferred tick value will

be lower. Range 1 to 15.

Next Gateway

Enter the IP Address of the first gateway (Adit or router) that the data will use to reach the

destination network. Referring back to Example 1, Network B would enter the IP Address of

Router 1, since that is the first gateway on the route to Network C. This field is only used on IP

Networks.

Next IPX Router

Enter the MAC Address of the next gateway (Adit or router) on the route that the data will use

to reach the destination network. Referring back to Example 1, Network B would enter the

MAC Address of Router 1, since that is the next gateway on the route to Network C. This field

is only used on IPX networks.

Static Addresses

Use this screen to define static addresses that are based on the Ethernet MAC or IP

Address of a specific device on the local LAN. Typically, the Adit would learn of these

devices by monitoring LAN/WAN packets. By defining a static address, you are telling

the Adit the location of the corresponding device before the Adit learns where this

device resides. Static addresses are typically used in a bridging situation.

Use the Local (LAN) Profile to define static addresses for devices that are located on

the LAN. If you wish to establish static addresses for devices on remote LAN’s, access

this screen using the corresponding Remote Profile.

packets from other devices, the unit learns about other servers. Once a server has been

discovered, the information is displayed on this window.

This window may be used in two ways, depending on which Selected Items mode is

chosen: <Do Not Advertise> Selected Items or <Advertise> Selected Items. The

<Do Not Advertise> mode causes the unit to not advertise the learned services. To

advertise under this mode, remove the X next to the server to advertise. The

<Advertise> mode causes the unit to advertise all learned services to all remotes. If a

specific server under this mode is not to be advertised the X must be removed next to

the listed server.

Since each server that contains an X next to it consumes a filter, you should choose the

approach that consumes the least number of filters. For example, if an Adit has learned

15 services of which you want to advertise only 5. It would consume fewer filters to set

the Selected Items field to <Advertise> and place an X next to the 5 servers to, than

to choose <Do Not Advertise> and place an X next to the 10 servers.

NOTE: Each selected server will be counted as a filter. A maximum of 500

filters can be defined on the Adit.

Advertise Network/Server - IPX Server Fields

Network

This field displays the network address of each learned or configured server. If a server has been

selected using the [X] key, “Config Fltr” will appear before the network address of this entry.

Type

The TYPE field displays the Hex value assigned to each known server. When a server is added

using [CTRL A], a Hex value must be defined. If you wish to learn certain services that match

a particular server type, manually add an entry specifying the desired Hex value. This setting

will enable the unit to learn all services that match the specified service type. This field may be

used in conjunction with the NAME field, described below.

Name

This field displays the first 11 characters of the name of each known server. If the server is

manually added and a server name is not defined, all servers matching the added type will be

learned and the first 11 characters of their names will be displayed. If the server name is defined

when the server is manually added, then only servers matching both type and name will be

learned.

Selected Items

Use this field to determine whether your Adit unit will advertise the information listed on this

window to remote units. Valid field options include <Do Not Advertise> and <Advertise>. If

<Advertise> is selected, checked items (with X) will advertise to all remote Adit units in the

Profile Directory. If <Do Not Advertise> is selected, checked items will not be advertised.

Use the [CTRL A] keys to manually configure a service. When manually configuring a service,

the following prompt is displayed:

You must define a server type (see TYPE field, above), however the corresponding server name

may be left blank. If a server name is not defined, all services of the specified type will be

learned, regardless of the name.

If the server type and name are specified, only server types that match both values will be

learned. Be aware that the NAME value is case and spacing sensitive.

DHCP Server/Client/Relay

Use the options on this window to enable the local Adit unit to act as either a DHCP

Server, Client or BOOTP relay agent. Workstations with DHCP (Dynamic Host

Configuration Protocol) client software will generate a broadcast message requesting

an IP Address from a DHCP server. As a relay agent, the Adit will forward these

requests to the appropriate server. When the server assigns the workstation an IP

Address, the Adit will then send this address back to the appropriate workstation. Using

this method, the DHCP server can reside at a Remote (WAN) location and the Adit can

serve as an agent between requesting workstations and the server. As a DHCP server,

the Adit can assign up to 254 IP Addresses to DHCP clients on the local LAN. It will

not assign to clients across the WAN.

Remote (WAN) Profile

The fields on the Remote (WAN) Profile Setup window allow you to define how and

when data transmission will occur with a specific remote device. This includes defining

the protocol(s) that it will use to send and receive data, defining security information,

static networks and WAN lines. The local Adit unit will depend on this information to

determine communication guidelines with remote sites.

The Remote (WAN) profile can support up to 24 remote profiles.

The Remote (WAN) profile complements the Local (LAN) profile. The remote profiles

identify which remote devices the local unit can communicate with by defining the data

transmission requirements of each remote device. The local profile defines the local

unit’s transmission requirements and may appear as a remote profile in each remote

unit’s profile directory. It is important to understand that the information contained in

the remote profile determines how the local and remote units establish communication.

ꢀ Advertising is disabled to decrease traffic on the LAN and across the WAN

Static routing may also be preferable when managing large networks. Often times it is

easier to disable the learning mode and manually enter routes, rather than review each

routing table entry and determine its advertising status.

As a static routing example, let’s assume that we have three networks, A, B and C.

Network B, is connected to Network C via a router, and to Network A via a remote

Adit. Network B may not learn of Network A’s existence if advertising was disabled

on Router 1. Therefore, if you wish to establish an entry in the routing table indicating

a route between Network B and Network C, you can define a static route on Network B.

Static/VPN Networks

To continue with this example, if Network B is not configured to advertise Network C

to Network A, then Network A will not dynamically learn of Network C’s existence. If

you wish to establish a route on Network A to Network C, you must define a static route

on Network A that indicates that Network C may be accessed through remote Adit B.

To set up a static route, you must define the following routing information:

ꢀ The address of the network you wish to reach;

ꢀ How far away from the local LAN the network is located (in terms of metric

measurement or hops, depending on the protocol)

ꢀ Whether the network can be reached on the local LAN (via the LAN port) or

through a remote Adit unit.

If you are using the local LAN, you will also need to define the address (either IP or

MAC, depending on the protocol) of the first gateway (i.e. Adit or router) you will use

to reach the network you are defining.

It is important to note that if the static network is reached via a Remote (WAN) Adit,

it must be defined by choosing the SETUP: <Static Networks> option on the

corresponding Remote (WAN) Profile Setup window. Static networks that are reached

via the local LAN must be defined by choosing the SETUP <Static Networks> option

on the Local (LAN) Profile Setup window.

NOTE: All static routes are considered filters and will be applied toward the

maximum allowable number of 500 filters.

Static Addresses

Use this screen to define static addresses that are based on the Ethernet MAC or IP

Address of a specific device on the local LAN. Typically, the Adit would learn of these

devices by monitoring LAN/WAN packets. By defining a static address, you are telling

the Adit the location of the corresponding device before the Adit learns where this

device resides. Static addresses are typically used in a bridging situation.

Use the Local (LAN) Profile to define static addresses for devices that are located on

the LAN. If you wish to establish static addresses for devices on remote LAN’s, access

this screen using the corresponding Remote (WAN) Profile.

Firewall Filters

A firewall is a method for keeping a network secure from intruders, by using filters to

block the transmission of certain types of (service) traffic. Once created, firewalls are

a security feature that allows only certain types of services to pass in and/or out of your

LAN. Firewalls can be created on a per remote profile basis. Each filter consists of a

set of drop/pass rules which are applied in the order in which they appear on the list —

in other words, rule 1 is applied before rule 2 and so on. This set of rules constitutes a

filter for a specific remote profile and will be applied to that profile’s incoming or

outgoing, or both traffic types (service flaws).

Rule Number

The rule number defines the order in which the rules are applied. Once there is two or more rules

created, the rule number can be changed to put them in the desired order. The Last! rule

displayed, is automatically set after the first rule is defined, and states that the Adit should drop

any service (incoming or outgoing) which has not been addressed in the proceeding rules.

Action: (Pass/Drop)

This column indicates the service(s) that will <Pass> or <Drop> from the local network to the

remote network and vice versa. On the Firewall Filters window the following indicated Pass/

Drop:

! in this column = Drop

Blank column = Pass

Typically, rules are established with the Pass action, since the last rule (which is automatically

defined by the software) Drops all services not expressly permitted by the previous rule(s). For

example, if you wish to deny all transmissions except Telnet, you would create a rule indicating

that Telnet has the Pass action. The Adit software would create the last rule that states the unit

should Drop all other services.

Since any service that is not expressly permitted to pass will be prohibited, it is important that

you thoroughly understand the security policies of your WAN before attempting to create a

firewall. We suggest that only experienced Network Administrators create and maintain

firewall filters. Incorrectly defined filters may compromise the security and functionality of

your WAN.

Log or Alarm entries may also be useful when a specific security issue is at stake. For example,

if your security policy does not permit Telnetting, you may wish to keep track of all Telnet

attempts. As a general rule, however, we do not recommend keeping a log of all rule matches

since this may impact system performance and may cause an Event or Alarm screen overflow.

NOTE: When enabled, a single event/alarm will be logged for all TCP session

initiations. An event/alarm will be logged for each packet for all UDP transfers.

UDP traffic should typically not be allowed across a firewall.

Filter Network/Server

This screen allows you to filter the Remote (WAN) networks/servers in two ways,

depending on which mode is selected. The <Filter> mode causes the unit to learn all

networks/services on known networks, and then advertise these services to the LAN.

In the <Learn> mode the unit will disable or restrict learning of networks/services.

Under this mode, services will only be learned if they are selected or added. For

example, when you enter the current screen, all known networks/services will be

displayed, since the <Filter> mode is the default mode. If you wish to restrict which

services are learned you may change the Selected Items field to <Learn> and then

enable only selected services displayed on the screen. Once you exit this screen and

save the changes, only those services that you enabled and/or added will be learned and

displayed.

Since the <Filter> mode learns all services, it may be most appropriate for smaller

networks. The <Learn> mode however, may be best for larger networks since it allows

you to restrict which types of services are learned.

Ping Utility

Use this option to verify any communication problems between the Router and various

devices connected to your LAN or at a Remote location. Problems are detected when a

“ping” is sent to a device. If the device echoes back to the Router, then communications

are operating normally. If no echo returns, then further investigation is needed. Devices

must be running TCP/IP software in order for the ping to be successful.

A single ping may be used, where only one packet is sent to the device being tested, or

a continuous ping to the device until you manually terminate the test. Continual pinging

may help identify intermittent communication problems. Please note that when pinging

a device on a remote LAN, it is not unusual for the first ping to fail.

NOTE: In order to perform LAN port testing, the selected frame type must be

Ethernet II and the Router’s IP Address must be configured.

Keep-Alive Timeout. Indicates that there was a timeout

when the CMG Router card was in a keepalive mode. For

SBC endpoint keepalive support, the SBC must send MGCP

messages to each endpoint to restart the CMG’s MGCP

Keepalive endpoint timeouts. Typically, this is an AUEP or

AUCX message, but any MGCP message to an endpoint

works. If no MGCP message is received before the

Keepalive timeout, the CMG restarts that channel and RSIPs

Count field each time they occur. Each alarm will be listed separately and the Count

field will display a value of 1.

Alarm listings will also appear as flashing or bold text entries in the User Event Log.

Please note that all alarms will generate SNMP traps.

The Alarm Log is cleared when the Adit is reinitialized.

System Reports Window

Networks/Servers

Use this screen to review all of the networks and servers that your Local (LAN) Adit

has learned on its Local LAN or from remote units, as well as static entries.

By sending out IPX and IP RIP (Routing Information Protocol) and IPX SAP (Service

Advertising Protocol) packets and monitoring RIP and SAP packets from other

devices, the Adit will learn about other servers and networks. The Adit will constantly

monitor RIP and SAP packets to ensure that the status of the network or server has

changed. Should a RIP or SAP packet indicate a change in status, the Adit would

update the data in the table and send the information to all enabled remotes to exchange

the updated data. This screen will change depending on the values in the Display and

Learned From fields.

1. On the Main Menu, [TAB] to the System Reports option.

2. Press [SPACEBAR] to scroll to Networks/Servers.

Networks/Servers

Type

This field displays the Hex value assigned to each known server. This field applies only to IPX

Servers.

Name

This field displays the first 11 characters of the name of each known server. This field applies

only to IPX Servers.

Metric

This field displays the numeric value (of hops) indicating the distance from your Local (LAN)

network to the destination network. This field applies only to IP Networks.

Next Gateway

This field displays the MAC Address of the first gateway (Adit or Router) that the data will use

to reach the destination network. This field is only used on IP Networks.

Hops

See Metric, above. This field is only used on IPX Networks.

Ticks

This field displays the distance between two networks as measured in time increments (1/18th

of a second). This information is only used by IPX Networks. Like hops, ticks may be used to

designate primary and secondary routes to the same network. Although both the hops and ticks

values are considered when determining routing priority, for Novell networks, the tick value is

considered first.

Next IPX Router

This field displays the MAC Address of the next gateway (Adit or Router) that the data will use

to reach the destination network. This applies only to IPX Networks.

Frame Type

This field will display the chosen frame type of the packets that are sent and received by the

Adit. If a packet is received that is formatted in a frame type that has not been enabled, the Adit

will not accept the data. Note that multiple frame types may be supported simultaneously. This

field applies only to IPX Networks.

System Reports Window

Address Tables

Use this screen to review the MAC Address and IP Address of the devices that are

known by the Adit unit. The Adit will monitor traffic on the LAN/WAN and

dynamically learn the MAC Address and/or IP Address of each device. This learning

is a continuous process that occurs automatically as communication takes place on the

LAN or across the WAN. The MAC Address and IP Address Tables, along with

Network Tables are used to determine if and where the Adit should send packets.
