Specifying a MAC Address Source
By default, the token ring interface uses the MAC address stored in the
programmable read-only memory (PROM) on the link module.
You can set the source for MAC addresses on a token ring interface to:
• BOXWIDE -- The interface uses a MAC address that the software generates
from the router’s serial number.
• PROM -- The interface uses a MAC address from the PROM on the token ring
link module.
• CNFG -- You explicitly assign a MAC address with the MAC Address
Override parameter.
To set the source for MAC addresses, complete the following tasks:
