Enabling IPX routing in the MAX
The Ether Options profile contains system-global parameters that affect all IPX interfaces in
the MAX unit. Following are the related parameters (shown with sample settings):

The dial-in Netware client must accept the network number, although it can provide its own
node number or accept a node number provided by the MAX. If the client does not have a
unique node address, the MAX assigns the node address as well.

IPX Frame
The type of packet frame the MAX routes and spoofs. The default tis
IEEE 802.2. Base this setting on the type of IPX frame used by the
majority of NetWare servers on the Ethernet network. If some NetWare
software transmits IPX in a frame type other than the type specified,
the MAX drops those packets or, if you enable bridging, bridges them.
(If you are not familiar with the concept of packet frames, see the
Novell documentation).

IPX Enet #
IPX network number for the Ethernet interface of the MAX. The
easiest way to ensure that the number is correct is to leave the default
null address. The null address causes the MAX unit to listen for its
network number and acquire it from another IPX router or NetWare
server on the same segment. If you enter a number other than zero, the
MAX unit becomes a seeding router, and other routers can learn their
IPX network number from it. You have to have at least one seeding
routing on each segment. (For details about seeding routers, see the
Novell documentation.)

IPX Pool #
A virtual IPX network to be assigned to dial-in NetWare clients.
Because dial-in clients do not belong to an IPX network, they must be
assigned an IPX network number so that they can establish a routing
connection with the MAX. The MAX advertises the route to this
virtual network and assigns it as the network address for dial-in clients.

IPX Routing
Enable/disable IPX routing mode. When you enable IPX routing in a
MAX unit and close the Ethernet > Mod Config profile, the unit comes
up in IPX routing mode, using the frame type specified by the IPX
Frame parameter, and listens on the Ethernet. The default frame type
802.2 (which is the suggested frame type for NetWare 3.12 or later),
and listens on the Ethernet network to acquire its IPX network number
from other IPX routers or NetWare servers on the same segment.
