2. Add a dial circuit using the add device command.
3. Configure the spare interface by using the net command to configure the
interface or add ATM LAN Emulation clients.
4. Configure the various protocols and features using the protocol and feature
commands.
5. Exit the CONFIG process by pressing Ctrl-P.
6. Access the GWCON process by entering talk 5.
7. Bring the new interface online to the network using the activate command.
The following example shows how to configure and activate a new dial circuit on
which the IP protocol is enabled. The dial circuit and IP protocol configuration are
not shown.
Example:
*talk 6
Config> add device dial-circuit
Config> net 6
Circuit configuration
Circuit config>
.

.
Here you would configure the dial circuit
.
.
.
Circuit config> exit
Config> protocol ip
IP>

*talk 5
+activate 6
Restrictions for Spare Interfaces
The activate command cannot be used to activate a new interface on the network
under the following conditions:
v You have already entered a delete interface command. The device must be
restarted if
any
interface has been deleted. You cannot delete a spare interface
(indicated by
null
in list displays).
v The spare interface is the only interface that enables a protocol or feature. The
protocol or feature must already be enabled on an existing interface before it can
be used by a spare interface.
v The new spare interface has a header size or trailer size greater than the sizes
for other interfaces.
v There is not enough memory to allocate receive buffers for the new interface.
In these cases, you must restart the device to bring the new interface online.
You can configure the following interfaces as spare interfaces, but you cannot
activate them on the network using the activate command:
v SDLC Relay
v PPP Multilink master and dedicated link nets
You must restart the device to bring these interfaces online.
