The Express L128T S/T normally will treat the WAN network as an
unnumbered link. This is usually referred to as being a "half-router."
However, a PPP peer which wants to assign a network address to the
WAN link can do so, in which case the Express L128T S/T will go into
"full-router" mode.
IPX/Triggered
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
When set to Yes, only IPX RIP and SAP updates are sent when the
routing or service table has changed and learned routes are not
"aged." When set to No (def), updates are sent periodically based on
the RIP and SAP timers set in Configuration/IPX/RIP Timer and Con-
figuration/IPX/SAP Timer.
IPX/Retain
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
When this Connection List entry is disconnected and this parameter is
set to Yes, all routes learned from this WAN connection are retained
and their routing interface is set to idle. This permits dial-on-demand
to occur using this profile for any IPX network or service that might
have been advertised by the particular PPP peer. The idle routes can
be flushed or "zombied" from the routing table if a manual hangup is
performed when this WAN connection is not active. See Dial /Hang
up. When this Connection List entry is disconnected and this parame-
ter is set to No (def), IPX routes and services learned from this session
are "zombied" and are not retained.
IPX/Type 20 Packets
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
In order for certain protocol implementations, like NetBIOS, to func-
tion in the NetWare environment, routes must allow a broadcast pack-
et to be propagated throughout the IPX networks. The Type 20 IPX
packet is used specifically for this purpose. This causes special han-
dling of this packet by the Express L128T S/T. When a router receives
