Important Considerations
■
An AppleTalk interface defines the relationship between a virtual LAN
(VLAN) and an AppleTalk network:
■
Every AppleTalk interface has one VLAN associated with it.
■
For routing purposes, you define a range of network numbers that
are assigned to the AppleTalk interface. Example:
20301
–
20310
■
You can configure the interface to be a seed or nonseed interface:
■
Seed interface
— Initializes (“seeds”) the network with your
configuration information. This information includes the network
range and zone name list.
■
Nonseed interface
— Listens for a seed router and then takes the
zone and network range information from the first seed interface
that it detects. After a nonseed interface obtains this information,
it can participate in AppleTalk routing.
■
Before you define the AppleTalk interface, you must define a VLAN
and select AppleTalk as a protocol that the VLAN supports.
■
Clients that have not been configured to use a particular zone use the
default zone name.
■
You can enter up to 16 zone names per interface.
