ZyXEL Communications 128 user manual IPX Spoofing, IPX Ethernet Setup

IPX Spoofing

The Prestige comes with several pre-defined call filters designed to prevent certain IPX packets from triggering a call to a Remote Node. These filters should inform your Prestige which packets should be ignored as traffic.

When you are routing IPX packets, the default call filters are defined as follows:

∙Block periodical SAP and RIP response messages.

∙Block NetWare serialization packets.

∙Allow SAP and RIP inquiry packets.

These call filters prevent the Prestige from making a call to the Remote Node, thus preventing the expense of an unnecessary phone call.
