Preface
When To Use This Guide
Part I of this guide provides an alphabetical listing of Configuration Editor
parameters and their descriptions, grouped according to their corresponding
entries in the Configuration Menu of the Configuration Editor.
Refer to Part I when you need information on a parameter in order to better
understand how to use it in your router’s configuration.
Part II of this guide provides detailed descriptions of the following:
The router statistics screens

Refer to Part II when you need to learn the meanings of features in these
areas. (To learn how to use statistics screens, NCL commands, the Event
Log, and the MIB variables, refer to the User’s Guide.)
Coverage Note This manual addresses the entire range of parameters and other soft-
ware features found in Hewlett-Packard routers, including features that
are not found on all router models. Thus, for some routers, such as the
HP Router PR (J2540), certain features described in this manual are not
available in the router. For information on the features available in your
router, refer to the release notes you received with the router or most
recent software upgrade.
Audience
This guide is intended for network mangers and other technicians who
install, configure, and manage routers.

Introduction: How To Use the Dictionary
of Configuration Parameters
Introduction
Part I is a dictionary reference of the Parameters found in the Configuration
Editor, which is accessable from the Main menu (or by using the [/] [M] hot-
key combination in Quick Configuration).
Access to the
Configuration
Editor
Accessing the Configuration Editor from the Main Menu
Operator’s Reference

Part I is divided into fourteen chapters corresponding to the options listed in
the Configuration menu:
Figure 1-1. The Configuration Menu
Operator’s Reference

To find a parameter description, turn to the chapter corresponding to the
Configuration menu option containing that parameter. Then locate the pa-
rameter by finding it in its alphabetic order. (You can also locate the parame-
ter description by using the page/parameter listing at the beginning of each
chapter.)
Within each chapter, the parameters are listed alphabetically, with descrip-
tions of their functions and associated options. For example, the following
sample of dictionary entries describes the Quality of Service and Remote Ad-
dress parameters, and include:
The parameter names
Any applicable options for parameter settings
A description of each parameter and each parameter option
Any default settings

Example of Dictionary Entries in Operator’s Reference
Quality of Service
Specifies the link-level control. It always must remain set to LLC1, the default, for
802.3, 802.5, and PPP circuits.
Default: LLC1
LLC1
Datagram service; best-effort delivery.
LLC2
Reliable service, provides link-level control that includes error detection and error
recovery by retransmission. Results in these additional parameters:
Retry Counter Retry Timer
Connect Retries Link Idle Timer
Modulus Window Size
Remote Address
Accepts a unique decimal value from 00 to 99. Be sure to reverse local and remote
address values when you configure the device at the other end of the PPP circuit.
Default: 07
Range: 00 to 99
Parameter Name
Options for the
Quality of Service
Parameter
Default Setting for Quality of Service
Selecting the LLC2 option for Quality
of Service causes these six other
parameters to appear. Their
descriptions are listed
alphabetically in this chapter.
