Parameter Specifies
Route IPX Enable/disable IPX routing in the Answer > PPP Options profile. With
the Yes setting, the MAX passes IPX packets to the bridge/router
software.
Recv Auth Protocol to use for authenticating the password sent by the far end
during PPP negotiation. IPX connections require this parameter,
because the MAX cannot verify Connection profiles by address as it
does for IP connections.
IPX SAP Filter How SAP packets are handled across this WAN connection. You can
apply an IPX SAP filter (in the Answer > Session Options profile) to
exclude or explicitly include certain remote services from the MAX
unit’s SAP table. If you apply a SAP filter in a Connection > Session
Options profile, you can exclude or explicitly include services in both
directions (as described in “Creating and applying IPX SAP filters” on
page 12-22).
