This chapter provides step-by-step instructions for configuring local area network (LAN), Token Ring, Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI), 100VG-AnyLAN, and 100Base-T links. This manual assumes that you are using the guided configuration capabilities of NMMGR.

Figure 6-1 "Configuring Screen Flow" shows the screen flow for configuring LAN, Token Ring, FDDI, 100VG-AnyLAN, and 100Base-T screens. Screens unique to the configuration of LAN, Token Ring, FDDI, 100VG-AnyLAN and 100Base-T are indicated by bold boxed screens. [FUNCTION] denotes the function key used at a screen to invoke the next screen on the screen flow.

Before using NMMGR to configure a link, you should complete the worksheets provided. See Chapter 4 "Planning for Node Configuration" for more information on planning your configuration and filling out the configuration worksheets.

This chapter includes step-by-step instructions to help you perform the following tasks:
  • Begin the configuration process.

  • Configure a LAN, Token Ring, FDDI, 100VG-AnyLAN, or 100Base-T network interface.

Once the above tasks are completed, refer to Chapter 10 "Validating and Cross-Validating with SYSGEN" for step-by-step instructions to help you perform the following validation tasks:
  • Validate the network transport configuration.

  • Cross-validate in SYSGEN.
