Defining IPX Network Address Rules

IPX network address rules capture frames that contain an IPX network address and encapsulation that
matches the IPX network and encapsulation specified in the rule. This rule only applies to devices that
already have an IPX network address assigned.
To define an IPX network address rule, enter vlan followed by an existing VLAN ID then ipx followed by
a valid IPX network number and an optional encapsulation parameter value. For example, the following
command creates an IPX network address rule for VLAN 1200:
-> vlan 1200 ipx a010590c novell
In this example, frames received on any mobile port must contain an IPX network a010590c address with
a Novell Raw (802.3) encapsulation to qualify for dynamic assignment to VLAN 1200.
IPX network addresses consist of eight hex digits. If an address less than eight digits is entered, the entry
is prefixed with zeros to equal eight characters. For example, the following command results in an IPX
network address rule for network 0000250b:
-> vlan 1210 ipx 250b snap
If an encapsulation parameter value is not specified, this value defaults to Ethernet-II encapsulation. For
example, either one of the following commands creates the same IPX network address rule:
-> vlan 1220 ipx 250c e2
-> vlan 1220 ipx 250c
If the IPX network address rule VLAN is going to route IPX traffic, it is important to specify a rule encap-
sulation that matches the IPX router port encapsulation. If there is a mismatch, connectivity with other
IPX devices may not occur. See
IPX router ports.
The following table lists keywords for specifying an encapsulation value:
