This chapter provides step-by-step instructions for configuring Point-to-Point links. (Point-to-Point links are sometimes referred to as router links.) This manual assumes that you are using the guided configuration capabilities of NMMGR.

Figure 7-1 "Point-to-Point Link Configuration Screen Flow" shows the screen flow for configuring Point-to-Point screens. Screens unique to Point-to-Point 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.

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 Point-to-Point network interface.

  • Configure neighbor gateways.

  • Configure node mapping.

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.
