Menus Reference Manual: Edit Remote Site - IPX Parameters Menu
4 / 7 - IPX DMR Enabled
The IPX DMR Enabled option defines or disables demand RIP for IPX routing with the peer IPX router. Demand RIP
allows the IPX routing tables to be updated only when there has been a change in the routing table.
Disabling this option will cause the IPX RIP routing tables to be transmitted every 60 seconds.
Entering "standard" enables demand RIP; the P1700 will only send RIP messages over the link to this remote site when
the routing information has actually changed.
Entering "link_up_only" enables demand RIP; the P1700 will only send RIP messages over the link to this remote site
when the routing information has actually changed and the link is currently up. If the link is down due to suspension,
the routing information will be queued and then sent the next time the link is brought up for user data.
When demand RIP is enabled, if the remote site router refuses to negotiate demand RIP on the initial connection, this
router will attempt to negotiate demand RIP for 5 minutes. During the 5 minutes, this router will use normal RIP and
SAP. If demand RIP has not been negotiated after the 5 minutes, this router will fall back to using normal RIP and
SAP.
Default:
[disabled]
Choices:
disabled, standard, link_up_only
5 / 8 - Force RIP Update
The Force RIP Update option determines if the P1700 will send a RIP update request to the WAN peer IPX router
when a local LAN RIP update is sent. When operating under normal RIP update times, this forces the WAN partners
to provide their RIP tables when requested to maintain proper routing information.
Default:
[disabled]
