A default domain name can also be conÞgured for the purpose of name resolution. When a user types a host name, the MSS will add the domain name and attempt the connection.
Ex: CHANGE DOMAIN Òbadger.incorp.comÓ
¥Gateway: TCP/IP networks rely on gateways to transfer network trafÞc to hosts on other networks. The MSS will learn which hosts are gateways for the local network by listening to broadcasted IP routing packets, or it can be explicitly told which hosts are gateways.
Ex: CHANGE GATEWAY 192.0.1.66
¥Loadhost: The MSS loads its operational software from the speciÞed loadhost when an Initialize Reload command is entered (see the Commands chapter of the MSS Reference Manual).
Ex: CHANGE LOADHOST 192.0.1.73
¥IP Security: The serial port can be restricted to allow connections only to and from certain hosts on the network. ConÞguration involves adding entries to the local host table, and specifying whether connections to/from those hosts should be allowed or denied.
Ex: CHANGE IPSECURITY 192.0.1.255 DISABLED
4.3.2IPX/SPX Parameters
¥Internal Network Number: The MSS can advertise itself as a router to the network using its
¥Routing and Encapsulation: When internal routing is enabled (the default), the MSS uses its internal network number to advertise itself to the network as a router. It can then route packets that are encapsulated into the following NetWare frame types: Ethernet v2 (Ether_II), 802.3 Native mode (Native), 802.2 (082_2), and 802.2 SNAP (Snap). All four frame types are enabled by default. Internal routing must be enabled when more than one frame type is enabled, and enabling routing enables all four frame types.
Ex: CHANGE NETWARE INTERNAL ROUTING DISABLED CHANGE NETWARE ENCAPSULATION SNAP ENABLED
