IPX Protocol Settings
The IPX Protocol Settings dialog lets you configure the use of IPX over the connection. When you click the
[IPX Protocol Settings]
button, a dialog similar to the following appears:

If you’d like to use IPX, check the Enable IPX box.
NOTE: Novell NetWare uses IPX for all its communications. Be sure to check
Enable IPX
if
you plan to log into NetWare file servers or use other programs that rely on IPX, such as Proxy.
Network and Node Address
When you connect, you will be assigned an IPX address that combines the Remote Annex server’s network
number with a node address. FastLink II gives you a choice as to how your network and/or node address gets
assigned:
You can use your FastLink II-assigned network and node address by checking one or both of the
Client Assigned checkboxes.
You can let the Remote Annex server assign a new, unique network and/or node address to your PC
each time you connect by unchecking one or both of the Client Assigned checkboxes.
