Справочное Руководство для Netopia r6100

Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX) is the network protocol used by Novell NetWare networks. This chapter 
shows you how to configure the Netopia R6000 Series for routing data using IPX. You also learn how to 
configure the router to ser ve IPX network addresses.

This section covers the following topics:

The Netopia R6000 Series suppor ts the following IPX features:

■

IPX RIP and SAP

■

NetBIOS broadcast packet for warding (IPX type 20)

■

IPX packet filtering definable by source and destination IPX address and socket number for added security

■

IPX SAP filtering to aid in optimizing WAN bandwidth

■

Dial-on-demand features: 

■

Spoofing of IPX keep-alive, SPX, and ser ver serialization packets

■

Configurable RIP/SAP timers on connection profiles

This section defines IPX-related protocols such as RIP, SAP, and NetBIOS, in addition to other related terms. 
See the next section for setup instructions.

IPX is a datagram, connectionless protocol that Novell adapted from Xerox Network System’s (XNS’s) Internet 
Datagram Protocol (IDP). IPX is dynamically routed, and the routing architecture works by “learning” network 
addressing automatically.
