Choose this option if...
- The node is in a cluster.
- You are upgrading or reconfiguring DECnet-Plus.
- You need to access a DECdns server for network addresses.
- You want to run DECnet over TCP/IP (RFC 1859) and/or
OSI applications over TCP/IP (RFC 1006).
- You only have one communications device, or you have
multiple devices, all of which will be used for
DECnet-Plus communications.
- You want to use the default names for all devices and
routing circuits (for example, default csmacd-0, rather
than sva-0).
- You want to autoconfigure your network addresses only.
- You want to configure both the NSP and OSI transports
and only want to create default OSI templates. You want
to enable both DECnet over TCP/IP or OSI applications
over TCP/IP.
- You do not want to enable FDDI large packet support
(if you have an FDDI-type circuit).
- You want to set the routing characteristic DNS Address
Format to TRUE (this attribute controls the
interpretation of address structuring).
- You want to use integrated mode routing.
