Entries

The Add/Edit IPX SAP Entry screen is as follows:

Server Name

The server name of the IPX server. The name can be up to 48 characters long.

Server Type

The type of IPX server. This is represented as 4 hexidecimal digits.

Network Number

The network number for this server as defined in the IPX Static Routes table entry.
This cannot be changed from the SAP screens.

Node Address

Specifies the MAC address for the server. It is formatted as 12 hex digits.

Socket Number

Services in an IPX network communicate with the requester using sockets. This field
specifies the socket number of the desired service. It is formatted as 4 hex digits.

If Static Routing is enabled and the Manager is not on the local subnetwork, then the
route to the Manager's network must be defined. A SAP entry is not created for the
Manager.

If you are using any security servers configured for IPX (i.e. Novell Bindery, Axent,
NT Domain) to provide 833IS security, you must set the routing path and SAP
entries for these servers.
