Configure IPX Routing: Masternet (Detroit)
Add a Remote LAN Interface
After completing the LAN interface configuration, select Add to add the next interface for the
Remote LAN. Configure the information for the WAN (Remote LAN) interface as follows:
Note that the IPX Network Number in the above screen refers to the external network number of the
Remote LAN (i.e., the bridged sites).
The following menus will be presented if the IPX RIP/SAP protocols are enabled for the system.
For Remote LANs, the remote peer (bridge) is not expected to understand RIP/SAP protocols. In
the event that the remote peer does understand these protocols, we suggest the following
configuration: do not send, receive, and respond. This will allow the remote peer to see NetWare
services when the remote bridge is connected. When not connected, the services will age-out and
eventually go away.
The RIP/SAP menus will appear similar to the following:
1) LAN
2) WAN (Remote LAN)
