IPX Protocol

Required for IPX

Frame Relay operation requires that the WAN interface be set as a “numbered interface.” This
means that the interface (and thus the Frame Relay network) must have an IPX network
number.

IPX numbered interface

IPX network number

CV: Use the IPX Routing: WAN Dialog Box.

TB: Use configure and set the Numbered and Net keywords in the IPX WAN 0 (and/or any
other port numbers you wish to configure) section.

Suggested for IPX

The settings above are all that is generally required for IPX operation over Frame Relay.

AppleTalk Protocol

Required for AppleTalk

Frame Relay operation requires that the WAN interface be set as a “numbered interface.” This
means that the interface (and thus the Frame Relay network) must have an AppleTalk network
number and the interface must have an AppleTalk node number.

AppleTalk numbered interface

AppleTalk network number

AppleTalk node number

AppleTalk zone name

CV: Use the AppleTalk Routing: WAN Dialog Box.

TB: Use configure and set the Numbered, NetLower, and DefZone keywords in the Apple-
Talk WAN 0
(and/or any other port numbers you wish to configure) section.

Suggested for AppleTalk

You may want to use more meaningful zone names.

CV: Use the AppleTalk Routing: WAN Dialog Box.

TB: Use configure and set keywords in the AppleTalk WAN 0 (and/or any other port
numbers you wish to configure) section.

DECnet Protocol

Required for DECnet

In order to be used, DECnet must be turned on both globally and for a particular port.

WAN interfaces which are set for Frame Relay operation do not need any additional parame-
ters set in order to function.

Set DECnet on (globally, and for this port)

CV: Use the DECnet Routing Dialog Box (under Global/DECnet Routing) and the DECnet:
WAN Dialog Box.

TB: Use configure and set the Mode keyword in the DECnet WAN 0 (and/or any other port
numbers you wish to configure) section.

v Note: Setting DECnet on for any port with the command line also sets DECnet on globally.
In CompatiView you must set a global parameter and a port-specific parameter.
