operation when you are connecting to another Compatible Systems 
router at the other end of the link
.
Note:
 Due to the complexity of BGP, configuration parameters for 
BGP are not given here.  Compatible Systems has posted a BGP config-
uration guide in the Technical Support section of our Web site at: http://

IPX Protocol
Required for IPX
WAN interfaces which are set for PPP operation do not generally use an 
IPX address.  They are set to act as an "unnumbered interface."  In this 
mode of operation, there are no required settings.
Suggested for IPX
If you plan to use dial-on-demand for this link, you should set the 
update method "triggered" to avoid the link being brought up by trans-
mission of IPX RIP information.  You should only use triggered opera-
tion when you are connecting to another Compatible Systems router at 
the other end.
When you set up an on-demand link with IPX, you should carefully 
monitor link usage to determine whether the link is being activated only 
when it is needed.  Additional router configuration will be required for 
many networks in order to achieve optimal link usage.
Set update method
CV:   Use the IPX Routing: WAN Dialog Box.
TB:   Use configure and set the Updates keyword in the IPX WAN 0 
(and/or other port numbers you wish to configure) section. 
AppleTalk Protocol
Required for AppleTalk
WAN interfaces which are set for PPP operation do not generally use an 
AppleTalk address.  They are set to act as an "unnumbered interface."  
In this mode of operation, there are no required settings.
Suggested for AppleTalk
If you plan to use dial-on-demand for this link, you should set the 
update method to triggered to avoid the link being brought up by trans-
mission of AppleTalk RTMP information.  You should only use trig-
