Setting Up

The Novell Internet Access Server 4.1 routing software offers an extensive set of configurable parameters for all supported protocols. You can use these parameters to

• Modify the default characteristics of the initial configuration
• Configure advanced features and optimize router and WAN link performance options

The initial configuration of Novell Internet Access Server 4.1 provides the basis for most routing needs. The initial configuration is based on the configured boards, the enabled and configured protocols, and the supported WAN protocol. If you followed the instructions when you installed Novell Internet Access Server 4.1, you set most protocol parameters during the initial configuration at their default values.
