Each network in a Novell internet, including all LANs and
WAN links, must be assigned a network number. Novell file
servers also have an internal network number. These
network numbers must be unique across the Novell
internet—no two networks or file servers may use the
same network number. All devices attached to a network
must use the same network number to refer to the
network. Check to see what numbers your file servers are
using. Many schemes exist to ensure that numbers are kept
unique, for example, using the hexadecimal representation
of the IP address or the telephone number of each location.

All routers, file servers and workstations attached to an
Ethernet LAN must use the same Ethernet encapsulation or
frame type. The following table lists the Novell frame type
and the equivalent AR router encapsulation:

Novell Frame Type

Router Encapsulation

Ethernet_802.3

802.3

Ethernet_802.2

802.2

Ethernet_II

EthII

Ethernet_SNAP

SNAP

You can determine the file server name, internal network
number, Ethernet frame type and Ethernet network number
used by a Novell file server, by interrogating the file server
itself. From the management console attached to the Novell file
server, at the system console prompt type the command

“config” and record the values of the fields “File server name”,
“IPX internal network number”, “Frame type” and “LAN
protocol”. You can also access the system console by running
the rconsole utility from any workstation logged in as
supervisor. For more details, contact your local Novell network
administrator or refer to the Novell documentation.

CONFIGURING IPX

The following steps are required:

1. Configure the PPP link.

2. Configure the routers for IPX.

3. Test the configuration.

Configure the PPP Link

Configure PPP interface 0 on each router to use the wide area
link. See 

Getting Connected

 for information about configuring

PPP to use a synchronous link. See 

Configuring ISDN

 for

information about configuring PPP to use an ISDN call. If the
PPP interface is configured for dial on demand operation (see

Configuring ISDN Dial on Demand

) or bandwidth on demand

operation (see 

Configuring ISDN Bandwidth on Demand

), these

services will automatically be used by the IPX routing software.

Example output from the SHOW IP

ROUTE command for a basic TCP/IP

network.
