Novell Routing Concept
Novell IPX Routing
Looping packets
If a packet is looping due to changes in the network topology, the packet is dis-
carded on the 16th hop, as the hop count is incremented by every router.
IPX over WAN Links
Numbered and
unnumbered WAN links
The Intel Express 8100 Router allows IPX WAN links to be either unnumbered
or numbered where an IPX Network Number is assigned to the link. If the WAN
Protocol is not being used, the routers over a WAN link must both be configured
to run the same link type (unnumbered, numbered or unnumbered static). The ne-
gotiation of whether to use unnumbered or numbered links by the WAN Protocol
is described in the following section.
Recommendations for
the use of numbered
links
If communicating with a router that supports unnumbered links (including all In-
tel router products), an unnumbered link should be used to avoid having to assign
a network number to WAN links. If communicating with a router which only
supports numbered links, a numbered link should be used.
IPX WAN Protocol
The IPX WAN Protocol can be selected for communicating over WAN links to
ensure consistency with the configuration of the router on the other end of the
WAN link. If the IPX WAN Protocol is selected, then it must be configured in
both the routers over the WAN link—see the following section.
IPX WAN Protocol
IPX WAN 2 Protocol
The Intel Express 8100 Router supports the IPX WAN 2 protocol as defined by
Novell in Novell NetWare Link Services Protocol Specification Rev 1.0, Chapter
3—IPX WAN Version 2, Novell part No. 100-001708-002. The protocol is back-
wards compatible with RFC 1634.
The protocol helps ensure consistency between the configuration of the two rout-
ers over the WAN link.
Numbered and
unnumbered WAN links
The IPX WAN Protocol implemented in the Intel Express 8100 Router supports
both unnumbered and numbered links. When a numbered link is defined, an IPX
Network Number is assigned to the link. When protocol negotiation is taking
place between the routers over a WAN link, unnumbered links are chosen in pref-
erence to numbered. Numbered links are only chosen if one or both of the routers
cannot support unnumbered links.
