3Com 10014299 manual Modify Encapsulation Format of IPX Frame on Interface

Configure IPX 379

Table 423 Configure the delay of interface sending IPX packets

Operation	Command
Configure the Delay of Interface Sending IPX Packets	ipx tick ticks
Restore default value of interface delay	undo ipx tick

By default, the delay of Ethernet interface is 1 tick, For asynchronous serial port is 30 ticks and that for WAN port is 6 ticks. The range of ticks is: 0~30000.

8Configure Management of IPX Packet

By default, the router usually discards the broadcast packet of type 20, but you can also enable such packet to be sent to other network segments by configuring routers.

Perform the following task in interface view.

Table 424 Configure management of IPX packet

Operation	Command
Enable propagation of broadcast packet of type 20	ipx netbios-propagation
Disable propagation of broadcast packet of type 20	undo ipx	netbios-propagation

9Modify Encapsulation Format of IPX Frame on Interface

Table 425 Encapsulation format of IPX frame

Interface type	Encapsulation format supported
Ethernet interface	Ethernet_SNAP
	Ethernet_II
	802.3
	802.2
WAN interface	PPP
	FR
	X.25

Perform the following task in interface view.

Table 426 Modify encapsulation format of IPX frame on interface

Operation	Command
Modify encapsulation format of IPX frame on an	ipx encapsulation [ dot3

Restore default value of encapsulation format of IPX	undo	ipx encapsulation
frame on an interface

By default, the encapsulation format of IPX frame on Ethernet interface is Ethernet 802.3, and that on WAN interface is PPP.

10Configure IPX on WAN

In the 3Com Router series, commands such as dialer route, fr map and x25 map, can be used to configure mapping from IPX address to link layer address, so as to run IPX on WAN. For detailed configurations, refer to relative chapters in Link Layer Protocol.
