Configurable Features

IPX Service

The Switch Management Module, by default, has IPX communication enabled.
This allows the switch to be managed from an SNMP network management
station in an IPX network. The Switch Management Module automatically
configures the IPX network address using its MAC address as the node address
(displayed in the Node Address field in the IPX Service configuration screen
as shown in figure 4-5), and it learns the IPX network number by listening on
the network.
In the IPX Service configuration screen, you can disable IPX management by
changing the IPX Enabled value to No. You can also configure an IPX gateway
frame encapsulation type so that the switch can be managed from a remote
IPX network as described in the next section.
