Spoofing

The check box to enables or disables the IPX spoofing function. The spoofing function minimizes the
dial-up connection time by responding to the “keep alive” request on behalf of the remote IPX clients. The
spoofing function tries to minimize the ISDN dial-up against the IPX “keep alive” messages but does not
inhibit the the regular IPX or SPX messages.

Age

The IPX spoofing age configures how long the Hypertec Router will perform the spoofing function before
the ISDN dial-up is allowed by the “keep alive” message. Once the dial-up connection is up, the age timer
is reset.

IPX Route Table

An IPX route table entry contains IPX routing information for a known IPX network. The network number
identifies the unique IPX network. The gateway node is the node address for the gateway to that network.
The hop count indicates how far away the network is. The interface can be either local Ethernet or Intranet
through the ISDN connection.

For most applications, the user is not required to create or modify the IPX table.

IPX SAP Table

IPX SAP Table

An IPX SAP table entry contains information about a remote server. The server name is the name of
the server. The network is the internal network number of the server. The node number is the internal
node address of the server. The type is the service type of the server. The socket is the socket number
of the server. The hop count indicates the distance to the server. The NMS user is required to add a
SAP entry for every remote server the local clients intend to connect to. For a given SAP entry, the
Hypertec Router automatically adds a route entry in the IPX route table.
