IBM SC30-3681-08 manual Token-Ringor Ethernet, Conguring IPX for Token-Ring, End stations

Configure IPX? (Yes, No): [Yes]

1.Enter y to con®gure IPX. Entern to skip IPX con®guration and continue with quick con®guration.

You will see messages similar to the following:

Type ©r© any time at this level to restart IPX Configuration

IPX Configuration is already present

Configure IPX anyway? (Yes, No): [No] yes

2. Enter y to replace the existing con®guration. Entern to keep the current con®guration and continue.

If you have con®gured for DIALs dial-in interfaces the following panel will be displayed:

Enable IPX on DIALs interfaces? (Yes, No): [Yes]

3. Enter y to automatically enable IPX on each of the DIALs interfaces. A random

IPX network number will be generated for the interface and IPXWAN will be
disabled for the DIALs interface. It is required that IPXWAN be disabled for
DIALs interfaces.
Enter n to automatically disable IPX on each of the DIALs dial-in interfaces.
Configuring Per-Interface IPX Information
Configuring Interface 0 (Token Ring)
Configure IPX on this interface? (Yes, No): [Yes]
4. The next messages and your responses depend on whether you are con®guring
Token-Ringor Ethernet.
Con®guring IPX for Token-Ring:
a. The following prompt is displayed:
Token Ring encapsulation (frame) type? (TOKEN±RING MSB, TOKEN±RING LSB,
TOKEN±RING_SNAP MSB, TOKEN±RING_SNAP LSB): [TOKEN±RING MSB]
b. Enter the encapsulation type used by the IPX protocol on your Token-Ring
end stations.
Token±Ring MSB:	Most common encapsulation type and the default. The IBM 2210
	builds outgoing packets with a 3-byte 802.2 header, (0xE0, 0xE0,
	0x03). It sends the source and destination addresses in MSB (most
	signi®cant bit), or noncanonical, format, which is the native address
	format for Token-Ring.
Token±Ring LSB	Same as Token-Ring MSB except the IBM 2210 sends the addresses
	in LSB (least signi®cant bit), or canonical, format.
Token-Ring SNAP MSB	The IBM 2210 builds outgoing packets with an 8-byte 802.2/SNAP
	header (0xAA, 0xAA, 0x03, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x81, 0x37). It sends
	the source and destination addresses in most signi®cant bit (MSB), or
	noncanonical, format.
Token-Ring SNAP LSB	Same as Token-Ring SNAP MSB except the IBM 2210 sends the
	addresses in LSB, or canonical, format.
