ISDN Router 30
IPX Routing
An Ethernet LAN IPX network number is required for the router’s local
Ethernet LAN connection. The ISDN WAN link to each remote router
must have an assigned IPX network number. IPX Routes and IPX SAPs
for each remote router are also required for the configuration process.
IPX Routes
If the router is to direct traffic to network segments and servers beyond
the remote router, the routing table in the target router can be ‘seeded’
with static IPX routes. An IPX route includes:
•
a network number
•
a hop count (the hop count is the number of routers through which
traffic must pass to reach the remote network segment or server)
•
a number of ticks (the number of ticks represents how much time the
packet takes to reach the destination in units of roughly 1/20th of a
second)
