Configuring IPX Interfaces
An IPX interface allows an FRM to connect to a Novell IPX network. Press
[E]
at the
IP/LLC2/BRIDGE/IPX Interfaces Configuration Menu
(or
[A], [C], [E], [E]
from the
Main Menu) to display configured IPX interfaces.
To configure an interface, press
[F]
at the IP/LLC2/BRIDGE/IPX Interfaces Configu-
ration Menu. When prompted, enter an
Interface Number
:
0–63
. (This is merely a
sequential number to identify the interface.)
The display depends on the interface; the following figure shows an example, and
Table 14-7
through
Table 14-9
list the parameters for all interface types.
