IPX Protocol

Required for IPX

WAN ports which are set for PPP operation do not generally use an IPX address. They are set to act as an “unnumbered interface.” In this mode of operation, there are no required settings.

Suggested for IPX

If you plan to use dial-on-demand for this link, you should set the update method (to triggered) to avoid the link being brought up by transmission of IPX RIP information.

•Update Method

RV: Use the WAN/IPX screen.

CL: Use interface(misc) and then ipx wan(set).

AppleTalk Protocol

Required for AppleTalk

WAN ports which are set for PPP operation do not generally use an AppleTalk address. They are set to act as an “unnumbered interface.” In this mode of operation, there are no required settings.

Suggested for AppleTalk

If you plan to use dial-on-demand for this link, you should set the update method (to triggered) to avoid the link being brought up by transmission of AppleTalk RTMP information.

•Update Method

RV: Use the WAN/AppleTalk screen.

CL: Use interface(misc) and then appletalk wan(set).

DECnet Protocol

Required for DECnet

WAN ports which are set for PPP dial-on-demand operation should have their DECnet hello timers and DECnet routing timers set for a fairly long period, since the link will be brought up when this information is transmitted.

•Hello timer

•Routing timer
