Introducing the Configuration

Editor

The Configuration Editor accesses a hierarchy of menus and screens

that include any parameters you need for customizing the router beyond

the ‘‘getting started’’, or factory default level. Using this editor, you can

customize all parameters needed to integrate the router into your

system (including the subset of parameters you can access through

Quick Configuration).

Generally, when you first create a configuration, it is easiest to begin by

using Quick Configuration to establish a minimal version of the

configuration to use in establishing functioning network connections.

However, when you are ready to use parameters that are not available in

the Quick Configuration screen, it is time to move on to the

Configuration Editor. You can do so either by starting the Configuration

Editor from the Main Menu or starting it from within Quick

Configuration by using the hotkeys. (Refer to ‘‘How To Use the Hotkeys’’

on page 3-12.)

You can use the Configuration Editor to create a configuration in a

router through either a directly connected terminal or a terminal

connected to the router via Telnet. (For information on Telnet, refer to

‘‘Telnet: How To Establish a Virtual Terminal Connection to a Remote

Node’’ on page 7-10.) You can also move an existing configuration

between routers or between a router and a host on the network. (Refer

to ‘‘Using TFTP To Transfer Operating Code, Configuration, and NCL

Display’’ on page 7-30, and ‘‘Using PC Modem Access To Transfer

Configuration and NCL Display on page 7–32.)
