This section discusses the objectives, audience, organization, and conventions of the Communication Server Addendum for AppleTalk Remote Access.
This manual provides the information necessary to configure your communication server to use AppleTalk Remote Access (ARA) to support remote Macintosh users. This manual, used in conjunction with the Release 9.21 Communication Server Configuration Guide and the Communication Server Command Reference publication, provides all of the information necessary to use and configure your communication server, including system, network, and interface configuration.
This publication addresses the system administrator who will configure and maintain a communication server configured as an ARA server, supporting remote Macintosh users running ARA software.

This manual uses the following conventions to convey instructions and information.
- Ctrl represents the key labeled Control.
- For example, the key combination Ctrl-D means hold down the Control key while you press the D key.
- A string is defined as a nonquoted set of characters. For example, when setting up a community string for SNMP to "public," do not use quotes around the string, or the string will include the quotation marks.
Command descriptions use these conventions:
- Examples that contain system prompts denote interactive sessions, indicating that the user enters commands at the prompt. The system prompt indicates the current command mode. For example, the prompt
router(config)# indicates global configuration mode.
- Commands and keywords are in boldface font.
- Arguments for which you supply values are in italic font.
- Elements in square brackets ([ ]) are optional.
- Alternative but required keywords are grouped in braces ({ }) and separated by vertical bars (|).
Examples use these conventions:
- Terminal sessions and information the system displays are in
screen font.
- Information you enter is in
boldface screen font.
- Nonprinting characters, such as passwords, are in angle brackets (< >).
- Default responses to system prompts are in square brackets ([ ]).
