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).
