IPX Configuration 73
Assigning IPX Network Numbers to VLAN Interfaces
To enable IPX on a VLAN interface after it is enabled globally, you must assign a
network number to the VLAN interface. One VLAN interface can have only one
network number.
Perform the following configuration in VLAN interface view.
By default, no network number is assigned to the VLAN interface. In other words,
IPX is disabled on all the VLAN interface even after it is enabled globally.
Note that deleting the IPX network number of the VLAN interface also deletes the
IPX configuration and routing information on the interface.
Configuring IPX Routing
After you have enabled IPX and assigned the IPX network number to a VLAN
interface, you can use the following sections to configure IPX routing.
■ Configuring IPX Static Routes
■ Configuring an IPX Route Limit
■ Configuring the Maximum Number of Dynamic Routes to the Same
Destination
■ Configuring the Number of the Equivalent Routes to the Same Destination
■ Configuring the Update Interval of IPX RIP
■ Configuring the Aging Period of IPX RIP
■ Configuring the Size of IPX RIP Update Packets
■ Configuring the IPX Packet Forwarding Delay on a VLAN Interface
■ Configuring IPX RIP to Import Static Routes
Configuring IPX Static Routes Perform the following configuration in system
view.
The IPX static routes with the destination network number of 0xFFFFFFFE are
default routes.
