IPX Protocol

Required for IPX

There are generally no required changes from the shipping Ethernet
configuration for IPX. The Ethernet interface will autoconfigure to use
the two most common IPX frame types, and will autoadapt to condi-
tions on the Ethernet.

Suggested for IPX

You may want to set your own network numbers, rather than using the
autoconfigured values. You may also want to turn off unused frame
types.

CV: Use the IPX Routing: Ethernet 0 Dialog Box.

TB:

Use configure and set keywords in the IPX Ethernet 0 section.

WAN Interface Configuration

In order to use a WAN interface, you may first need to set some phys-
ical parameters and then set up the link and protocol parameters.

There are differences between the capabilities of the built-in T1
CSU/DSU WAN interface and the RS-232 WAN interface. The T1
interface can only be used with lines which run at fractional or full T1
rates. The RS-232 interface can be run synchronously or asynchro-
nously, at rates up to 256Kbps (sync) or 230.4Kbps (async).

Internal T1 CSU/DSU (WAN 0) Physical Communications
Settings

Required for Dedicated Line Operation

No changes from the default values are required for standard operation
over a full T1. The default values are listed in Appendix A.

Suggested for Dedicated Line Operation

Changing to fractional T1, different coding or framing, etc., may be
required for a particular installation.

CV: Use the Physical Configuration: WAN 0 Dialog Box.

TB: Use configure and the T1 Interface WAN 0 section.
