Advertise Network/Server - IPX Server Fields

Network

This field displays the network address of each learned or configured server. If a server has been
selected using the

[X]

key, “Config Fltr” will appear before the network address of this entry.

Type

The TYPE field displays the Hex value assigned to each known server. When a server is added
using

[C

TRL

A]

, a Hex value must be defined. If you wish to learn certain services that match

a particular server type, manually add an entry specifying the desired Hex value. This setting
will enable the unit to learn all services that match the specified service type. This field may be
used in conjunction with the NAME field, described below.

Name

This field displays the first 11 characters of the name of each known server. If the server is
manually added and a server name is not defined, all servers matching the added type will be
learned and the first 11 characters of their names will be displayed. If the server name is defined
when the server is manually added, then only servers matching both type and name will be
learned.

Selected Items

Use this field to determine whether your Adit unit will advertise the information listed on this
window to remote units. Valid field options include <Do Not Advertise> and <Advertise>. If
<Advertise> is selected, checked items (with X) will advertise to all remote Adit units in the
Profile Directory. If <Do Not Advertise> is selected, checked items will not be advertised.
Use the

[C

TRL

A]

keys to manually configure a service. When manually configuring a service,

the following prompt is displayed:
You must define a server type (see TYPE field, above), however the corresponding server name
may be left blank. If a server name is not defined, all services of the specified type will be
learned, regardless of the name.
If the server type and name are specified, only server types that match both values will be
learned. Be aware that the NAME value is case and spacing sensitive.
