Configuring IPX
The <service-type> [<server-name>] parameter lets you specify a service type and, optionally, a specific server.
Use these parameters when you are configuring an ACL for filtering Get Nearest Server (GNS) replies. The
service type is a hexadecimal number. To specify all service types (“any”), enter 0. For a list of service types, see
the software documentation for your IPX servers. If you also enter the sever name, the access list applies only to
updates for that server, not to other serves of the same type.
For information about the other parameters, see “Configuring IPX SAP Access Control Lists (ACLs)” on page 14-
9.
Syntax: [no] ipx output-gns-filter <num> [<num>…]
USING THE WEB MANAGEMENT INTERFACE
You cannot configure GNS reply filters using the Web management interface.
Disable GNS Replies
When IPX is enabled in the routing switch, the device responds to all GNS requests by default. You can disable
GNS replies on individual routing switch ports. Use one of the following methods to do so.
USING THE CLI
To disable IPX GNS replies on port 1/1, enter the following commands. GNS replies are disabled for all IPX
interfaces on the port.
HP9300(config)# int eth 1/1
HP9300(config-if-1/1)# ipx gns-reply-disable
HP9300(config-if-1/1)# write memory
Syntax: [no] ipx gns-reply-disable
USING THE WEB MANAGEMENT INTERFACE
You cannot disable IPX GNS replies using the Web management interface.
Modify Maximum SAP and RIP Route Entries
You can define the maximum number of IPX/RIP and IPX/SAP routes that the router can store and forward.
• From 64 – 8192 RIP entries can be defined. The default number of RIP entries supported is 2048.
• From 64 – 8192 SAP entries can be defined. The default number of SAP entries supported is 4096.
NOTE: IPX must be enabled on the router for these items to be configurable.
USING THE CLI
To limit the number of RIP entries stored to 3000 from a default of 2048, enter the following command:
HP9300(config)# system-max ipx-rip-entry 3500
Syntax: system-max ipx-rip-entry <value>
To limit the number of SAP entries stored to 6000 from a default of 4096, enter the following command:
HP9300(config)# system-max ipx-sap-entry 6000
Syntax: system-max ipx-sap-entry <value>
USING THE WEB MANAGEMENT INTERFACE
To modify the maximum number of RIP or SAP route entries supported on a router:
1. Log on to the device using a valid user name and password for read-write access. The System configuration
panel is displayed.
2. Select the Max-Parameter
link to display the Configure System Parameter Maximum Value table. This table
lists the settings and valid ranges for all the configurable table sizes on the device.
3. Click the Modify button next to ipx-rip-entry or ipx-sap-entry.
