7-2 Bridging Setup
Table 7-1 Bridge Ethernet Setup Menu – Handle IPX Field Configuration
OPTIONS DESCRIPTION
None
When no IPX traffic is on the LAN or when you do not want any special handling for IPX.
Client
When only client workstations are on the LAN. RIP and SAP (Service Advertising Protocol)
response packets will not trigger calls.
Server
When only IPX servers are on the LAN. No RIP or SAP packets will trigger calls. Also, when
the line is down, your Prestige will reply to watchdog messages from the servers on behalf
of remote clients. How long your Prestige will do this is linked to the Ethernet Address
Timeout parameter in each remote node (see Remote Node Configuration). When a remote
Ethernet address is aged out, there is no need to maintain its connection to the IPX server.
