Configuring a Static IPX Route
Routing of IPX traffic is handled dynamically by such protocols as RIP and SAP, as
well as via static routes configured in the FRX8000. To configure a static route, press
[E],
then
[C]
from the Connections and Routing Paths Selection Menu (or
[A], [F], [E],
[C]
from the Main Menu). When prompted, enter:
●
Type
:
0
(RIP) or
1
(SAP). (The default is
0
.)
●
Node : 1–250
. (Default is the local node.
●
Route: 0–65535
. (The default is
0
.). This is simply an identifier.
●
Any other requested information, noting Table 15-10 .
The display will be similar to the RIP example in the following figure. (A SAP record
will display different parameters.)

When Changes Take Effect
When you add a new IPX Route record, the change will be written to the database as
soon as you enter the final parameter value. When you modify a parameter in an
existing record, the change will be written to the database instantly.
To make the change effective, press
[F7]
while the record is displayed. (If this isn’t
done, the change will become effective the next time the node containing the interface
undergoes re-IPL.
