This section contains information about the NMMGR configuration screens that are common to all network interfaces. The network transport configuration branch of NMMGR begins with a screen called the Network Transport Configuration Selection screen. Figure 4-1 “Network Transport configuration Screen Flow” shows the screen flow for configuring the Network Transport Configuration screens. Screens unique to the Network Transport Configuration are indicated by bold boxed screens. [FUNCTION] denotes the function key used at a screen to invoke the next screen on the screen flow

The Network Transport Configuration Selection screen allows you to define global parameters for the node as well as network interfaces of type LAN, ROUTER (point-to-point), X.25, SNA, TOKEN (token ring), FDDI, 100VG-AnyLAN, 100Base-T, Gateway Half, or Loopback.

To reach the network transport configuration screens, run NMMGR, and refer to the following pages of this section for a step-by-step process.
