Adding a Circuit to an Interface
The Configuration Manager simplifies router configuration by providing default
values for most of the parameters required to configure an interface. To customize
the configuration for your network, you can modify these parameter defaults.
To add a network interface, you must configure a circuit then enable bridging or
routing protocols for that circuit. The next section details these procedures.
Circuit Naming Conventions
When you configure a circuit on an interface, you assign the circuit a name.
Initially, Site Manager provides a circuit name, which, for most routers, consists
of a letter that indicates the circuit type followed by two numbers that identify the
circuit location. The first number is from 1 to 14 and identifies the router slot. The
second number is from 1 to 8 and identifies the specific connector in that slot. For
example, the circuit name S51 identifies a synchronous circuit in slot 5 on
communications port 1.
Circuit Naming Conventions for ASN
The name consists of a letter indicating the circuit type, followed by three
numbers that identify the ASN in the stack and the circuit location. The first
number is the slot ID of the ASN router in the stack, which Site Manager refers to
as the slot. The second number is the net module, and the third number is the
connector. For example, the circuit name E321 identifies an Ethernet circuit on
port 1 of the second net module for the third ASN in the stack.
