When hosts using AppleTalk (typically those using LocalTalk) are not directly connected to an IP network (usually 
an Ethernet), they must use a MacIP (AppleTalk-IP) gateway.

The optional Netopia AppleTalk feature enhancement kit provides for this ser vice. A MacIP gateway conver ts 
network traffic into the correct format for AppleTalk or IP, depending on the traffic’s destination. The MacIP 
gateway can also distribute IP addresses to AppleTalk computers on the network.

Note: Macintosh computers that have LocalTalk or EtherTalk selected in the MacTCP control panel, or 
“AppleTalk (MacIP)” selected in the TCP/IP control panel, must use the MacIP gateway to communicate with the 
Internet or any other IP network. Users should point their MacTCP or TCP/IP control panel to look in the 
LocalTalk zone for the MacIP ser ver. Macintosh computers that have Ethernet selected in the MacTCP or TCP/IP 
control panel can do their own AppleTalk-IP conversions.

Setting up MacIP involves choosing MacIP dynamic address ser ving and then configuring that type. KIP 
for warding is simply a method for distributing IP addresses to AppleTalk clients.

To go to the MacIP Setup screen, select MacIP/KIP Clients in the IP Address Ser ving screen from the System 
Configuration menu.

■

Select Serve Mac IP/KIP Clients and toggle to Yes, to enable MacIP/KIP address ser ving capability. This 
option is automatically enabled if the AppleTalk kit is installed and IP Address Ser ving is enabled.

■

Select MacIP/KIP Static Options and press Return. The MacIP (KIP) For warding Setup screen tells the 
Netopia R2121 how many static addresses to allocate for MacIP/KIP clients. The addresses must fall 
within the address pool from the previous screen. You will need to enter the number of static MacIP 
addresses to reser ve in this screen.

Note that the address pool IP range will also be listed for your referral in this screen.

You have finished your IP Setup.

 MacIP/KIP clients. The addresses must fall within one of the address pools
 from the previous screen.

         Number of Static Addresses:        0

         First Static Client Address:       0.0.0.0
