ADTRAN L128T user manual RIP/Retain, Connection List/IPX, IPX/Remote Network, IPX/Triggered

Chapter 3: Terminal Menu Operation and Structure

RIP/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 rout- ing interface is set to idle. This permits dial-on-demand to occur using this profile for any IP network that might have been advertised by the particular

PPPpeer. The idle routes can be flushed or “zombied” from the routing table if a manual hangup is performed when this WAN connection is not active. See Dial/Hang Up on page 89. When this Connection List entry is disconnected and this parameter is set to No (def), routes learned from this session are “zom- bied” and are not retained.

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 (def) will permit this connection profile to negotiate PPP IPXCP with the PPP peer for exchanging of IPX packets.

IPX/Remote Network

Write security: 3; Read security: 5

A non-zero value in this remote network number will allow the Express L128/ L128T to add a route to the PPP peer’s network to the routing table.

The Express L128/L128T normally will treat the WAN network as an unnum- bered link. This is usually referred to as being a “half-router.” However, a

PPPpeer which wants to assign a network address to the WAN link can do so, in which case the Express L128/L128T 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 timers set in Configuration/IPX/RIP Timer and Configuration/IPX/SAP Timer.
