Configuring Ipx Static And Framed Routes - 3Com OfficeConnect Remote 812 Cli User's Manual

Configuring IPX Static
and Framed Routes
To specify that the interface is Unnumbered you must enter 00000000 for the


<ipx network address> parameter.
set vc <vc name>
ipx_address 00000000
A static route is a configured route that will remain in the routing table until
deleted. Static routes differ from Dynamic routes in that Dynamic routes are
learned real-time via RIP or when new connections are established.
A framed route is much like a static route in that you manually configure the
route. The difference is that a static route is defined for the LAN while a framed
route is associated with a remote site connection. Also, while a static route is
active when the LAN is connected, a framed route is active only when the
connection to the associated remote site is active.
If you wish to set up a route to a network on the other side of a remote site, use a
framed route.
If you wish to set up a route to a network through the LAN, use a static route.
Only use static and framed routes for networks not learned using RIP.
To add a static IPX route over the LAN, use the command:


add ipx route <ipx network address>
gateway <ipx network address>
metric <number>
ticks <number>
The route will appear in the IPX routing table.
You can display all IPX routes with the list ipx routes command.
To delete an IPX static route, use the command:


delete ipx route <ipx network address>
To add a framed route that will be installed in the IPX routing table when a


connection is established use the following command:
add ipx_route vc <vc name>
ipx_net <ipx network address>
metric <number>
ticks <number>
The route will be removed from the IPX routing table when the VC profile is
disabled.
To delete a framed route so that it no longer will be installed in the routing


table when the connection is established use the command:
delete ipx_route vc <vc name>
ipx_route <ipx network address
Remember to disable and then re-enable the VC profile for the change to take
effect.
