Example of static-route configuration

This example shows a static-route configuration to a remote NetWare server. Remember that
you manually configure static IPX routes, so you must update them if there is a change to the
remote server. To configure an IPX Route profile:

MAX 6000/3000 Network Configuration Guide
Specifies
Internal network number of a remote NetWare server. NetWare file
servers are assigned an internal IPX network number by the
network administrator and usually use the default 000000000001
as a node number on that network. The combined network and
node address is the destination network address for file read/write
requests. (If you are not familiar with internal network numbers,
see your NetWare documentation for details.)
The server's node address on the internal network. Servers
typically use the default node address of 000000000001 on the
internal network.
A well-known socket number in the server. .
NetWare service type. The service type is a number included in
SAP advertisements. For example, NetWare file servers are SAP
Service type 0x04.
Hops to the server's internal network. Usually, the default hop
count of 2 is appropriate, but you might need to increase the value
for very distant servers.
Ticks are IBM PC clock ticks (1/18 second). Best routes are
calculated on the basis of tick count, not hop count. Usually, the
default tick count of 12 is appropriate, but you might need to
increase these value for very distant servers.
Name of the remote NetWare server.
Open an Ethernet > IPX Route profile.
Set the Server Name parameter to specify the name of the remote NetWare server, and set
the Active parameter to activate the route. For example:
Ethernet
IPX Routes
SERVER-1
Server Name=SERVER-1
Active=Yes
Because this is a route to a server's internal network, specify the server's internal network,
node, socket, and service type numbers. For example:
Network=CC1234FF
Node=000000000001
Socket=0451
Server Type=0004
Set the Hop Count and Tick Count parameters to specify the distance to the server in hops
and IBM PC clock ticks, respectively. (The default values are appropriate unless the server
is very distant.)
Hop Count=2
Tick Count=12
