Editing DLSw Parameters
5-7
Parameter: IP Virtual Ring
Default: None
Options: Any valid, unassigned ring number from 1 to 4095
10
(0x0001 to 0x0FFF)
Function: Specifies a virtual ring number for the TCP/IP network.
Instructions: Type any valid ring number. The number must be
• Unique among any other ring IDs, group LAN IDs, or internal LAN
IDs assigned in the network
• The same as the virtual ring number used by all other DLSw peers on
the same TCP/IP network
Entering a value for this mandatory parameter prepares the router for
DLSw services on Token Ring/802.5 circuits. (Enter a value even if you
are presently configuring DLSw services on Ethernet/802.3 circuits only.)
MIB Object ID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.1.5.1.5
Note: The IP Virtual Ring and Virtual Ring MTU parameters that appear in
the DLSw Global Parameters window are primarily for compatibility with
SRB networks locally attached to the router. However, Site Manager requires
you to enter a value for the IP Virtual Ring, even if you are configuring DLSw
services on non-SRB segments locally attached to the same router.
