Configure IPX Routing: Masternet (Detroit)
ADD REMOTE LAN DEVICES
From the On-node Device Entries Menu, select Add. Enter the device name for the Tampa site, which
is tampabr. Select Authentication, and add the Tampa site’s PAP password, which is tbpswd. Accept
defaults for ISDN and IPX information.
From the Device Table Menu, select Bridging. Enter the IPX Remote LAN Network Number of 0128,
which is the external network number of the Remote LAN at the Tampa site. Be sure make calls field
is disabled, since Remote LAN does not as yet support this feature.
Note: In our example, we could have also accepted the default option for the IPX Network
Number, NONE, since the remote LAN has no servers locally attached to it. In this case, the
Remote LAN’s network address would default to 0128, the external network number we
will configure for the Remote LAN interface. For more details, refer to the Configuring IPX
chapter, Network Interface Background Information.
The bridging options for tampabr should now look like the following:
The configuration of device tampabr is complete. Return to the On-node Device Entries Menu, and
add the device orlandobr in a similar fashion. After devices tampabr and orlandobr have been
configured, return to the Main Menu.
CONFIGURE SYSTEM OPTIONS
Next, we must configure bridging and routing information, which falls under the Options category.
To begin its configuration, press 2 at the Main Menu. For this example, we will enable bridging,
enable IPX routing, and configure the necessary IPX routing information.
