Netopia r6100 Guida Di Riferimento

Before changing any of the settings in this screen, consult your network administrator for the IPX setup 
information you will need. Changes made in this screen will take effect only after the Netopia R6000 Series is 
reset.

To go to the IPX Setup screen, from the Main Menu select System Configuration and then select Network 
Protocols Setup and then select IPX Setup.

Note: If you have completed Easy Setup, the information you have already entered will appear in the IPX Setup 
options screen.

1.

To enable IPX routing, select IPX Routing, toggle it to On, and press Return.

2.

To change Ethernet encapsulation from the commonly used 802.3 standard, select Ethernet 
Encapsulation and choose a different encapsulation method.

3.

Select Ethernet Network Address and enter the network address of the IPX network connected to the 
Netopia R6000 Series’s Ethernet por t.

Note: If the Ethernet network address is set to zero, the router will attempt to learn the address from any 
configured IPX device on the Ethernet network or from the remote IPX network when a call is established.

4.

To change the default path delay, select Ethernet Path Delay and enter a value (in ticks). This value is used 
to determine the por t cost of using the Ethernet por t in IPX RIP calculations.

5.

To enable NetBIOS packet for warding, select Ethernet NetBios Forwarding and toggle it to Yes. This 
parameter will determine whether IPX Packet type 20 packets are for warded on the Ethernet inter face. 
These packets are used by NetBIOS and some other applications.

6.

Select Ethernet Inbound SAP Filter Set to filter incoming IPX SAP adver tisements on the Ethernet. By 
attaching an incoming SAP filter on the Ethernet, you can restrict the number of SAP entries learned on a 
large IPX network to only those required by remote users connecting to the Netopia R6000 Series. An 
Ethernet SAP filter must be used with networks that have so many ser vers adver tised that the Netopia 
R6000 Series would other wise exhaust its internal memor y storing ser ver entries.
