CHAPTER 15 IPX (INTERNETWORK PACKET EXCHANGE)

IPX is an alternative to IP, proprietary to Novell. When IPX is activated, many new menus appear to allow
configuration of this type of network. IP and IPX can both be active in the router simultaneously, and an interface
can have both IP and IPX traffic passing through it. IPX is not discussed in the other chapters of this manual to
avoid confusion for those who are using IP.
