Default Sections and Default Values

Default Sections and Default Values

The concentrator reads the configuration in a hierarchical manner. If you configure a parameter value in a port-specific configuration section, the concentrator uses that value. If the concentrator does not find that value, it looks for the value in a default section you defined. If the concentrator still does not find a parameter, the concentrator uses the default value from the software.

For example, to determine the value for RipOut (outgoing RIP) for Ethernet interface 0:0, the concentrator first looks for a RipOut parameter in the following text configuration file section:

[ IP Ethernet 0:0 ]
 

If not found, it searches the following sections in order:

[ IP Ethernet 0:0 Default ]
[ IP Ethernet Default ]
[ IP Default ]
 

If the RipOut parameter is not found in any of these sections, the concentrator uses the default value from the software.

The benefit of using a default section is to set, in one place, values used by multiple interfaces. For example, if all IP interfaces use RIP, you can enter:

device# configure IP Default

[ IP Default ]# RIPVersion = V2

 

You then do not need to enter the RIPVersion keyword in any other IP section, except to override it.

In some cases, creating a default section might be all you need to configure. For example, to allow IPX routing on all Ethernet ports, the following commands may be all you need:

device# configure IPX Ethernet Default

[ IPX Ethernet Default ]# mode = routed

 

Similarly, to make sure IPX routing is off on all ports, enter:

device# configure IPX Default

[ IPX Default ]# mode = off

 

The Tunnel Partner VPN Default section is special because it allows you to terminate LAN-to-LAN tunnels without configuring a section for each tunnel.

In the rest of this Appendix are the keywords which may be used in default sections. For information on allowed values, see the section of the manual for that protocol. Some of these sections have an optional interface number in the section name. This interface number is represented below as [Inum].
