Release Notes for Router Software Version 10.0
DECnet
Bay Networks routing software for DECnet services now supports Level 1 Only
routing. Use Level 1 Only routing to maintain paths to only those systems within
the router’s local area. Level 1 Only routing prevents the sending of Level 2
routing updates, thus reducing traffic on an interface.
By default, the Bay networks routing software for DECnet services performs both
Level 1 and Level 2 routing. When the router performs both Level 1 and Level 2
routing, you can configure each router interface as either Level 1 and Level 2, or
as Level 1 Only.
When you configure the router to perform Level 1 Only routing, the router
maintains paths only to those systems within its local area. When the router
performs Level 1 Only routing, you must configure all router interfaces as Level 1
Only.
For more information, refer to Configuring DECnet Services.
Router Redundancy
Router redundancy protects a network from irrecoverable failures of an entire
router. You configure routers to be members of a router redundancy group. The
group includes a primary router that performs normal routing and bridging
services, and one or more secondary routers that take over if the primary router
fails. You can configure multiple router redundancy groups on the same network.
For more information, refer to Configuring Interface and Router Redundancy.
