Configuring IPX
December 2000
23 - 15
Syntax:
ipx sap-interval <interval>
The <interval> can be from 10 – 65535 seconds. The default is 60.
USING THE WEB MANAGEMENT INTERFACE
You cannot modify the SAP advertisement interval using the Web management interface.
Modify the Age Timer for Learned IPX Routes
The age timer specifies how many seconds a learned IPX route can remain in the Layer 3 Switch's IPX route table
before aging out.
The software calculates the age time by multiplying the advertisement interval times the age timer. For example,
the default age time for IPX routes is 180 seconds, which is 60 (the default advertisement interval) multiplied by 3
(the default age timer).
You can configure the age timer for RIP to a value from 1 – 65535. The default is 3. You cannot disable the age
timer.
To change the age timer for learned IPX routes, use the following CLI method.
USING THE CLI
To change the age timer for IPX routes from 3 to 4 on interface 1/1, enter the following commands.
BigIron(config) int e 1/1
BigIron(config-if-1/1) ipx rip-multiplier 4
BigIron(config-if-1/1) write memory
Syntax:
ipx rip-multiplier <num>
The <num> parameter specifies the age time and can be from 1 – 65535. The default is 3.
USING THE WEB MANAGEMENT INTERFACE
You cannot modify the route age timer using the Web management interface.
Modify the Age Timer for Learned SAP Entries
The age timer specifies how many seconds a learned IPX server can remain in the Layer 3 Switch's IPX service
table before aging out.
The software calculates the age time by multiplying the advertisement interval times the age timer. For example,
the default age time for IPX service entries is 180 seconds, which is 60 (the default advertisement interval)
multiplied by 3 (the default age timer).
You can configure the age timer for SAP to a value from 1 – 65535. The default is 3. You cannot disable the age
timer.
To change the age timer for learned SAP entries, use the following CLI method.
USING THE CLI
To change the age timer for IPX servers from 3 to 2 on interface 5/1, enter the following commands.
BigIron(config) int e 5/1
BigIron(config-if-5/1) ipx sap-multiplier 2
BigIron(config-if-5/1) write memory
Syntax:
ipx sap-multiplier <num>
The <num> parameter specifies the age time and can be from 1 – 65535. The default is 3.
USING THE WEB MANAGEMENT INTERFACE
You cannot modify the SAP age timer using the Web management interface.
