Introduction
Required Configuration
The FRM supports connections to Novell IPX networks, for the purpose of routing
traffic among LAN-attached workstations and local/remote servers, over frame relay
or X.25, or between local LANs.
IPX support includes:
Connection of LAN-attached workstation to remote router or server via X.25,
frame relay, Ethernet, or Token Ring
Filtering of certain types of traffic, for traffic control and access security
between the LAN and WAN
Support of IPX versions of RIP (routing information protocol), SAP (service
advertising protocol), periodic RIP, periodic SAP
Dynamic and static routing
