Configuring Static Routes
In a Novell NetWare network, the SSR uses RIP to determine the best paths for routing
IPX. However, you can add static RIP routes to RIP routing table to explicitly specify a
route.
To add a static RIP route, enter the following command in Configure mode:
Configuring Static SAP Table Entries
Servers in an IPX network use SAP to advertise services via broadcast packets. Services
from servers are stored in the Server Information Table. If you want to have a service
explicitly advertised with different hops, you will need to configure a static entry.
To add an entry into the Server Information Table, enter the following command in
Configure mode:
Controlling Access to IPX Networks
To control access to IPX networks, you create access control lists and then apply them with
filters to individual interfaces. The SSR supports the following IPX access lists that you
can use to filter various kinds of traffic:
• IPX access control list: Restrict traffic based on the source address, destination address,
source socket, destination socket, source network mask or destination network mask.
• SAP access control list: Restricts advertisements or learning of SAP services. These lists
are used for SAP filters. They can also be used for Get Nearest Server (GNS) replies.
• RIP access control list: Restricts advertisements or learning of networks.
Creating an IPX Access Control List
IPX access control lists control which IPX traffic is received from or sent to an interface
based on source address, destination address, source socket, destination socket, source
network mask or destination network mask. This is used to permit or deny traffic from
one IPX end node to another.
Add a static RIP route.
ipx add route <networkaddr>
<nextrouter or network node> <metric> <ticks>
Add a SAP table entry. ipx add sap
<service type> <SrvcName> <node>
<socket> <metric> <interface-network>
