If the source network number in a packet being forwarded to an IPX
Address Mapping Gateway circuit passes the outbound RIP filter on that
circuit, the packet is not mapped. If the source network number does not
pass a RIP filter, the packet is mapped.
The default is Disabled . When disabled, RIP filters are not used to
determine nonmappable network addresses.
NOTE:
If enabled, the RIP filter module must be loaded from the IPX protocol
menu, and the RIP filter must be configured carefully to block the correct network
numbers.
To configure a SAP type list that is used to determine networks that
are nonmappable, select
Nonmappable SAP Types
and select one of
the predefined SAP types or press
Ins
to add a new type. To add a new
SAP type, enter the desired SAP type or press
Ins
and select a SAP type
from the list of known service types.
The SAP tables are scanned for SAP entries with matching SAP types.
After finding all matching SAP types, the IPX Address Mapping
Gateway determines the network numbers on which the services are
found and applies those network numbers to the list of nonmappable
networks.
This option makes configuring nonmappable network numbers easier.
For example, all packets originating from the Novell Directory
Services
TM
(NDS
TM
) software or NetWare Mobile IPX
TM
software
should not be translated. Therefore, SAP types for NDS, NetWare Mobile
IPX, and Timesync are included in the list by default.
NOTE:
To avoid mapping NetWare 3.
x
servers, add SAP type 4 to the list of
nonmappable SAP types.
