The IOLINK-130 is pre-configured to operate as an Ethernet bridge compatible with the IEEE 802.1d Spanning Tree Protocol definitions. This means that without configuration modifications, the IOLINK-130 will bridge Ethernet traffic to its partner bridges when the Wide Area Network (WAN) connection has been established.
  • Page 37 Applications The IOLINK-130 router also is pre-configured as an IPX router. This means that if you wish to bridge IPX traffic instead of routing it, you must disable the IPX routing function of the IOLINK-130 router.

To configure the IOLINK-130 to be an IPX router when both LAN segments contain Novell servers, the IPX network numbers are learned automatically from the routing information and service announcements sent by the servers.

  • Page 48: Novell Servers In One Location Only

    IPX routing procedures will cause the names of the services located on LAN #1 to be stored in the services table on the IOLINK-130 on LAN #2. When one of the clients on LAN #2 starts up, it will look for a server on the local LAN and the IOLINK-130 will respond with the list of servers that are located on the central LAN.
  • Page 49 Configuration: Since there is not a server on LAN 2 in this example, the IPX network number may be manually configured and the IOLINK-130 router will proceed to route between the two networks. When manually configuring an IPX network number for a frame type that has already learned a network number, IPX routing must be disabled before the new network number is assigned.
