IPX Definitions
This section defines IPX-related protocols such as RIP, SAP and NetBIOS, in addition to other related terms. See
the next section for setup instructions.
Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX)
IPX is a datagram, connectionless protocol that Novell adapted from Xerox Network System’s (XNS) Internet
Datagram Protocol (IDP). IPX is dynamically routed, and the routing architecture works by “learning” network
addressing automatically.
