MultiFRAD II User Guide
If your network DOES NOT include a file server, we recommend disabling Auto Learn; the MultiFRAD or the network administrator can assign the network numbers.
If your network DOES include a file server, we recommend enabling Auto Learn and allowing the MultiFRAD to learn the IPX network numbers from the file server. WARNING: If the file server and MultiFRAD lose power, the MultiFRAD may reboot quicker than the server and assign the network numbers before the file server can; the MultiFRAD polls the server 20 times and if it receives no response it will assign the network numbers.
If you select No for Auto Learn, record the network numbers assigned by the network file server for each of the four frame types (Raw (802.3), LLC (802.2), EthernetII (Type II), SNAP) in the space provided below.
RAW (802.3) Frames Network Number _____________
LCC (802.2) Frames Network Number ______________
TYPE_II Frames Network Number _________________
SNAP Frames Network Number ___________________

When you manually assign network numbers, you must make sure they match the network numbers assigned to your local file server (if any).

Note: The WAN port does not have the capability of learning the network number, unlike the LAN port (i.e., the WAN port does not have a file server).
