CONFIGURING IPX

IPX-Specific Information for Devices

REMOTE LAN DEVICES

Remote LAN devices are configured in a slightly different way than WAN devices. Since the remote device is a bridge and not an IPX router, the IPX options for Remote LAN devices are configured under the bridge-level options, as follows:

USING CFGEDIT

1.Select Security from the main menu.

2.Select Device Level Databases from the security menu.

3.Select On-node Device Entries from the device level databases menu.

4.Press 1 to add a device.

5.Enter the device’s name and press <RET>. You should provide ISDN and Authentication information first.

6.Select Bridging from the Device Table Menu. A menu similar to the following will be displayed:

Device	Bridging: (Device = "remote2")
1)	IP (Sub)Network Number		NONE
2)	Bridging		ENABLED
3)	Make calls for bridge data		DISABLED
4)	IPX Remote LAN Network	Number	NONE
5)	IPX Spoofing Options
6)	AppleTalk Network Number		NONE
Select	function from above or	<RET> for previous menu?

7.Enable Bridging and disable Make calls for bridge data.

8.Select IPX Remote LAN Network Number. Provide the external network number for the Remote LAN interface if desired. The default value, NONE, means the remote IPX external number will be the default IPX Remote LAN interface network number. Refer to page 277.

Note: The IPX Spoofing Options selection for Remote LAN devices is for a future release. Do not try to configure at this time.
