    Configuring IPX Overview Internetwork packet exchange (IPX) is a network layer protocol of NetWare. Its position in NetWare is similar to IP in TCP/IP. IPX implements such functions as address filling, routing, and packet forwarding. IPX is a connectionless protocol. Though both data and the destination IPX address are included in an IPX packet, IPX does not confirm whether the packet is forwarded successfully.

    advertisement to such clients. Because server information is dynamically updated by SAP, clients can always obtain latest server information. SAP defines three types of packets, service query, service response, and periodic updates. The following subsections describe how SAP operates: NetWare client initialization When a NetWare client is initializing, it needs to locate a server.

    configured. The two configurations have no direct relation, so changing one of the configurations will not affect the other. When the number of dynamic and static routes to the same destination reaches the upper limit, newly found dynamic routes will be discarded instead of being added to the routing table. If the newly configured maximum value is smaller than the previous one, the excessive routes will not be deleted until they get aged out or until they are deleted manually.

Configure the maximum The default is 480 bytes—seven ipx sap mtu bytes length of IPX RIP updates. 64-byte service information items can be included in a SAP update. Configuring a response mode for IPX SAP GNS request GNS is a SAP message, broadcast by a SAP-enabled NetWare client.

    The maximum queue length of the same service type items does not limit the amount of static service information but the amount of dynamic service information. If the newly configured queue length is less than the original length, the table items in the service information table will not be deleted; if the amount of service information for the same service type reaches the configured value, new service information items will not be added.
