Advertise Network/Server
IPX Server Advertising
Servers are learned and maintained by the Adit in the same way as network tables, by sending out IPX SAP (Service Advertising Protocol) packets and monitoring SAP packets from other devices, the unit learns about other servers. Once a server has been discovered, the information is displayed on this window.
This window may be used in two ways, depending on which Selected Items mode is chosen: <Do Not Advertise> Selected Items or <Advertise> Selected Items. The <Do Not Advertise> mode causes the unit to not advertise the learned services. To advertise under this mode, remove the X next to the server to advertise. The <Advertise> mode causes the unit to advertise all learned services to all remotes. If a specific server under this mode is not to be advertised the X must be removed next to the listed server.
Since each server that contains an X next to it consumes a filter, you should choose the approach that consumes the least number of filters. For example, if an Adit has learned 15 services of which you want to advertise only 5. It would consume fewer filters to set the Selected Items field to <Advertise> and place an X next to the 5 servers to, than to choose <Do Not Advertise> and place an X next to the 10 servers.
NOTE: Each selected server will be counted as a filter. A maximum of 500 filters can be defined on the Adit.
