IPX/Retain
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
When this Connection List entry is disconnected and this parameter is set to 
Yes
, all routes learned from this WAN connection are retained and their rout-
ing interface is set to idle.  This permits dial-on-demand to occur using this 
profile for any IPX network or service that might have been advertised by the 
particular PPP peer.  The idle routes can be flushed or “zombied” from the 
routing table if a manual hangup is performed when this WAN connection is 
not active.  See Dial /Hang up. When this Connection List entry is disconnect-
ed and this parameter is set to No (def), IPX routes and services learned from 
this session are “zombied” and are not retained.
IPX/Type 20 Packets
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
In order for certain protocol implementations, like NetBIOS, to function in the 
NetWare environment, routes must allow a broadcast packet to be propagated 
throughout the IPX networks.  The Type 20 IPX packet is used specifically for 
this purpose.  This causes special handling of this packet by the Express L128/
L128T.  When a router receives this type of packet, it rebroadcasts it across all 
interfaces except the one it is received on and includes the network number of 
that interface in the data portion of the packet.  The IPX Router Specification 
from Novell notes that Type 20 packets should not be propagated across slow-
er links with bandwidths of less than 1Mbps (like ISDN).  However, when set 
to Pass (def), the Express L128/L128T will allow these packets to propagate 
over the WAN connection.  This facilitates dial-on-demand applications.  
When set to Block, all Type 20 packets are not propagated across the WAN 
connection.
