Connection List/IPX
The IPX menu contains the parameters for exchanging IPX data with the
PPP peer.
IPX/Mode
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
Setting to On will permit this connection profile to negotiate PPP IPXCP
with the PPP peer for exchanging of IPX packets. Default is Off.
IPX/Remote Network
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
A non-zero value in this remote network number will allow the Express
4110/4120 to add a route to the PPP peer’s network to the routing table.
The Express 4110/4120 normally will treat the WAN network as an
unnumbered link. This is usually referred to as being a “half-router.”
However, a PPP peer which wants to assign a network address to the
WAN link can do so, in which case the Express 4110/4120 will go into
“full-router” mode.
IPX/Triggered
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
When set to Yes , only IPX RIP and SAP updates are sent when the routing
or service table has changed and learned routes are not “aged.” When set
to No (def), updates are sent periodically based on the RIP and SAP tim-
ers set in Configuration/IPX/RIP Timer and Configuration/IPX/SAP
Time r.
IPX/Retain
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
When this Connection List entry is disconnected and this parameter is set
to Yes, all routes learned from this WAN connection are retained and their
routing interface is set to idle. This permits dial-on-demand to occur
using this profile for any IPX network or service that might have been
advertised by the particular PPP peer. The idle routes can be flushed or
“zombied” from the routing table if a manual ha ng u p is perfo r med whe n
this WAN connection is not active. See Dial /Hang up. When this Con-
