Note: If you set RIP to “on” for a dial-on-demand link, you must valso set the update method to triggered to prevent the link from being brought up by transmission of RIP information. You should only use triggered operation when you are connecting to another Compatible Systems router at the other end of the link.

IPX Protocol

Required for IPX

WAN interfaces which are set for PPP operation do not generally use an IPX address. They are set to act as an “unnumbered interface.” In this mode of operation, there are no required settings.

Suggested for IPX

If you plan to use dial-on-demand for this link, you should set the update method to “triggered” to avoid the link being brought up by transmission of IPX RIP information. You should only use triggered operation when you are connecting to another Compatible Systems router at the other end.

When you set up an on-demand link with IPX, you should carefully monitor link usage to determine whether the link is being activated only when it is needed. Additional router configuration will be required for many networks in order to achieve optimal link usage.

Set update method

CV: Use the IPX Routing: WAN Dialog Box.

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

AppleTalk Protocol

Required for AppleTalk

WAN interfaces which are set for PPP operation do not generally use an AppleTalk address. They are set to act as an “unnumbered interface.” In this mode of operation, there are no required settings.

Suggested for AppleTalk

If you plan to use dial-on-demand for this link, you should set the update method to “triggered” to avoid the link being brought up by transmission of AppleTalk RTMP information. You should only use triggered operation when you are connecting to another Compatible Systems router at the other end.
