a. The following prompts are displayed:

Ethernet encapsulation type? (ETHERNET_8022, ETHERNET_8023, ETHERNET_ii,

ETHERNET_SNAP): [ETHERNET_8023]

b.Enter the encapsulation type used by the IPX protocol on your Ethernet end stations.

Ethernet_8022

Packet includes an 802.2 header.

Ethernet_8023

Uses an IEEE 802.3 packet format without the 802.2 header. This is

 

the default and the default for NetWare versions prior to 4.0.

 

Ethernet 802.3 does not conform to the IEEE 802 standards

 

because it does not include an 802.2 header. It may cause problems

 

with other nodes on the network.

Ethernet_II

Uses Ethernet type 8137 as the packet format. This format is

 

required if you are using NetWare VMS on the Ethernet. This is the

 

default for NetWare Versions 4.0 and higher.

Ethernet_SNAP

Uses the 802.2 format with a SNAP header. This encapsulation type

 

is meant to be compatible with token-ring SNAP encapsulation.

 

However, it violates IEEE standards and is not interoperable across

 

conformal bridges.

5.Assign an IPX network number to the associated directly connected network. Every IPX interface must have a unique network number.

Configuring Interface 1 (WAN PPP)

Configure IPX on this interface? (Yes, No): [Yes]

Network Number (hex) (1-FFFFFFFD): [1] 2

Enable IPXWAN? (Yes, No): [No] yes

Configuring Interface 2 (WAN PPP)

Configure IPX on this interface? (Yes, No): [Yes]

Network Number (hex) (1-FFFFFFFD):[1] 3

Enable IPXWAN? (Yes, No): [No] yes

Host Number for Serial Lines: (000000000000) 1

Configure IPXWAN NodeID? (Yes, No): [Yes]

NodeID (hex) (1 - FFFFFFFD): [1] 4

 

If enabled, the IPXWAN protocol negotiates routing parameters to be used on

 

the PPP serial interface before IPX packet forwarding begins. IPXWAN is not

 

required to forward IPX packets on PPP serial interfaces. The IPXWAN Node ID

 

is a unique IPX network number that identi®es the router, and is required if

 

IPXWAN is enabled on any network interfaces.

6. Host number is a unique 12-digit hexadecimal value assigned to an IPX router.

It is required because serial lines do not have hardware node addresses from

which to build a host number.
