Note that hop count more than or equal to 16 implies the service is
unreachable.

Description
Using the ipx service command, you can add a static service information item to
SIT. Using the undo ipx service command, you can delete a static service
information item from SIT.
The NetWare server uses SAP to advertise service information and stores the
service information to SIT which is dynamically updated by SAP. Adding a service
information item to SIT, users can access the service.
Example
Add a static service information item with service type 4, service name
"FileServer", server network ID 130, node value 0000-0a0b-abcd, server hops 1
and server preference 60.
