B-4 APPENDIX B: CLI COMMAND DESCRIPTION
Adds an entry to the IP routing table. IP packets destined for networks that match
this network will be routed to this address. The command list ip routes displays
your currently defined routes.
add ipx network
<network_name>
address [ipx_address]
{ interface [eth:1] }
{ enabled [yes] }
frame [ETHERNET_II | SNAP | DSAP | NOVELL_8023]
Adds an IPX network to the list of IPX networks available over the specified
interface.
add ipx route
<ipx_net_address>
gateway [ipx_host_address]
metric [metric_number]
ticks [tick_number]
Adds an IPX static route (for the LAN) to the systems IPX Route table, which
defines static routes to remote IPX networks. The command list ipx routes displays
currently defined static routes.
Parameters Description
<net_address> IP address of the remote network, in the format nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn, with or
without a mask specifier. The Mask Specifier can be ‘A’, ‘B’, ‘C’, or ‘H’, or a
numeric value from 8 to 30 that describes the number of one bits in the mask.
If you do not specify a mask, the system will generate it from the network
address.
gateway IP address of gateway used to reach this remote network.
metric An integer representing how far away the route is, in “hops” through other
routers. Values are 1-15.
Parameters Description
<network_name> Name of IPX network. A unique ASCII string of up to 32 characters; space
must be surrounded by double quotes.
address Address of the IPX network.
interface Name of the interface with which this IPX network is to be associated. The
default is the first LAN interface (eth:1).
enabled Optional parameter indicates whether the network is enabled (YES) or
disabled (NO) by this command. YES is the default.
frame Frame encapsulation chosen for this IPX network.
Parameters Description
<ipx_net_address> IPX network address requiring a route.
gateway IPX address of the host which will act as a gateway. The format is
nnnn.xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (net_addr.mac_address).
metric Number of “hops” through different routers needed to reach the remote
IPX network.
ticks Estimated interval in ticks it takes to deliver a packet to the remote
network. There are approximately 18 ticks per second.
