RouteFinder MTASR1-100 User Guide

IPX Setup

The IPX Virtual Port Setup dialog box controls the four frame types, and the WAN port setup. The Advanced tab enables IPX routing, auto learn of Ethernet network numbers, and the distributed name of the RouteFinder.

The RIP and SAP default timers should not have to be changed for most applications. Disabling IPX and SPX Watchdog Spoofing in the Bandwidth Optimization group has proven effective under certain circumstances with Citrix clients.

The WAN tab allows you to enable or disable IPX routing on the WAN port, change the network number for the WAN port, enable or disable NetBIOS, change the default RIP and SAP timers, and optimize the bandwidth. If the WAN port is configured for frame relay, this dialog box allows you to add logical WAN. How the logical IPX WAN ports are configured is controlled by the WAN Port Setup tab.

The IPX WAN network number has to be the same on both ends of the link and must be unique throughout the internetwork. If the WAN port is configured in a point-to-point configuration, both WAN network numbers have to be the same and unique. If the WAN port is configured in a frame relay configuration, both virtual WAN numbers have to be the same and unique. In a frame relay configuration, the logical WAN network number has to be the same and unique at both ends of the Permanent Virtual Circuit (PVC).
