VINES Implementation Notes
This chapter contains Bay Networks specific implementation notes that you
should keep in mind when you configure VINES services. It describes what you
need to know if you want to
• Configure the router on a synchronous line
• Use the Inverse ARP feature for internet address resolution
• Assign a network ID to the router
• Configure the router on a serverless network segment or to source route over
Token Ring networks
• Make the transition from bridging to routing VINES
• Enable or disable the VINES Fragmentation Protocol (FRP) header
• Use the multipath with load sharing feature
• Avoid VINES address numbering problems on Bay Networks LN and CN
routers
Enabling VINES on a Synchronous Line
If you want to route VINES packets over synchronous protocols, such as Standard
Sync, Frame Relay, Point-to-Point, Switched Multimegabit Data Services
(SMDS), or Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM), you must enable VINES
support on a synchronous line. To do this, you must specify two synchronous line
parameters:
• Clocking source (internal or external)
• Synchronous line speed
