Editing Token Ring Lines
The following sections describe the Token Ring line parameters that you can edit:
• Enabling or Disabling a Token Ring Interface
• Specifying a MAC Address Override
• Specifying a MAC Address Source
• Specifying the Ring Speed
• Enabling or Disabling Early Token Release
Enabling or Disabling a Token Ring Interface
By default, Site Manager enables Token Ring line services when you add the
interface. You can disable and reenable the interface without moving physical
cabling.
Specifying a MAC Address Override
You can specify a MAC address override for an interface.
If you want to specify a MAC address for an interface (for example, to avoid host
number conflicts on a directly connected IPX or XNS network), enter the 48-bit
MAC address in MSB format; that is, enter 0x followed by 12 hexadecimal digits.
If you enter a MAC address with this parameter, you must set the MAC Address
Source to CNFG, as described in the next section.
If you want the router to generate the MAC address for this Token Ring interface,
do not change this parameter from its default value of zero.
Note: For information on Token Ring LANs, see “Token Ring Overview” in
Chapter 2.
