7.5.2 Static Route Setup

If your LAN-to-LAN application has NetWare servers on both sides of the link, then all NetWare client stations will have access to a server on their LAN as shown in Figure 7-5.

This may present a problem if you desire your client station to access a server at a remote site. For example, in the diagram of Figure 7-5, suppose that a client station on the network on the left wishes to access the NetWare server on the right (internal network number = 111). However, the SAP broadcasts will receive a response from the server on the left (internal network number = 444). A static route is used to resolve this problem by providing your Prestige with some static routing information to access the remote server.

From Menu 12, select one of the four possible IPX Static Routes (no. 11-14), this will open Menu 12.2 - Edit IPX Static Route, as shown in Figure 7-6.
