The Express L768 supports all four defined IPX frame types. The pos-
sible frame types are: Ether Type II (def), Ether 802.3 (Raw), Ether

The seed status defines what the Express L768 is to do with the net-
work information on the selected frame type during startup. There
are three possible seeding selections specified:
Seed
The Express L768 will listen for an IPX network
number being sent by another router (including
Novell software routers residing on servers) on
the Ethernet segment connected to this port and
use this number if it exists. If it does not discov-
er a number in use, the Express L768 will use the
configured IPX network number for the Ether-
net segment.
Non-Seed
The Express L768 will listen for an IPX network
(def)
number being sent by another router (including
Novell software routers residing on servers) on
the Ethernet segment connected to this port and
use this number if it exists. If it does not discov-
er a number in use, the Express L768 will wait
indefinitely until a number is sent by another
router on the Ethernet segment.
The Express L768 will listen for an IPX network
Auto-
Seed
number being sent by another router (including
Novell software routers residing on servers) on
the Ethernet segment connected to this port and
use this number if it exists. If it does not discov-
er a number in use, the Express L768 will auto-
generate a valid number using its routing ta-
bles.
