/sys$common/syshlp/NCLHELP.HLB  —  Network Management, Tools  NET$Configure (OpenVMS), BASIC
    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.

    To invoke net$configure using the BASIC option, enter:

    $ @sys$manager:net$configure

    For more information about the BASIC configuration, refer
    to the Installation and Basic Configuration manual.
