IPX Protocol

Required for IPX

Suggested for IPX

You may want to set your own network numbers, rather than using the autoconfigured values. You may also want to turn off unused frame types.

CV: Use the IPX Routing: Ethernet Dialog Box for Ethernet 0:0, 2:0, 4:0, and 6:0.

TB: Use configure and set keywords in the IPX Ethernet 0:0, IPX Ethernet 2:0, IPX Ethernet 4:0 and IPX Ethernet 6:0 sections.

AppleTalk Protocol

Required for AppleTalk

Generally, there are no required changes from the shipping Ethernet configuration for Apple- Talk. The Ethernet interface will autoconfigure to use AppleTalk Phase 2, and will adapt to conditions on the Ethernet.
