Chapter 6 - Basic Configuration Guide 21
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:Useconfigure and set keywords in the IPX Ethernet 0 (and/or
Ethernet 1) 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 a few differences between the capabilities of the V.35 WAN
interface and the RS-232 WAN interface. The V.35 interface can only
be run synchronously, at rates up to 2 Mbps per second. The RS-232
interface can be run synchronously or asynchronously, at rates up to
256Kbps (sync), or 230.4Kbps (async).
Physical Communications Settings
You may need to set the baud rate, sync/async operation, and other
physical communications parameters for the WAN interface. These
parameters will depend on the line communications device you are
using.
Note: Frame Relay and SMDS are presently supported in the
MicroRouter 1220i only via synchronous operation. An external clock
signal is generated for Frame Relay.
CV: Use the Physical Configuration: WAN Dialog Box.
TB: Use configure and set the LinkType keyword or other keywords
in the RS232 Interface WAN 0 (and/or WAN 1)section.
