IPX Protocol

Required for IPX

Frame Relay operation requires that the WAN interface is set to be a “numbered interface.” This means that the interface (and thus the Frame Relay network) must have an IPX network number.

IPX numbered interface

IPX Network Number

CV: Use the IPX Routing: WAN Dialog Box.

TB: Use configure and set the Numbered and Net keywords in the IPX WAN 0 (and/or WAN 1) section.

Suggested for IPX

The settings above are all that is generally required for IPX operation over Frame Relay.

AppleTalk Zone Name

CV: Use the AppleTalk Routing: WAN Dialog Box.

TB: Use configure and set the Numbered, NetLower, and DefZone keywords in the AppleTalk WAN 0 (and/or WAN 1) section.

CV: Use the DECnet Routing Dialog Box (under Global/DECnet Routing) and the DECnet: WAN Dialog Box.

TB: Use configure and set the Mode keyword in the DECnet WAN 0 (and/or WAN 1) section.

SMDS Configuration

This section covers the settings required for SMDS (Switched Multi-megabit Data Service) operation of the MicroRouter 1200i WAN 0 interface (IP only). SMDS is a connectionless, packet-switched service that offers LAN-to-LAN connectivity across a wide area at up to 1.544 Mbps.

Note: The IP protocol settings and the physical communication vsettings are the same as they would be for Frame Relay operation. The only parameters which should be set differently for SMDS are the Link Configuration and the SMDS addressing section.
