Adding RIP filters for IPX routing
RIP is the routing protocol that routes IPX data packets in an internetwork
environment. IPX Router Manager (Windows NT 4.0 routing management entity)
is responsible for IPX routing operation. You can configure IPX packet filters for
inbound or outbound traffic on interface handling IPX packets. You must configure
the IPX RIP parameters from the IPX heading of the navigation tree (Configuring
IPX Routing on page 208).
Note: The IPX router manager in your Enterprise Edge system operates separately
from the IP routing manager. As a result, RIP configuration under the IP
Routing heading has no effect on IPX routing. You must configure IPX RIP
parameters under the IPX Routing heading.
To add a RIP filter for IPX routing:
1. Choose Services, IPX Routing and click on the interface you want to
configure.
2. On the Configuration menu click Add RIP Input Filter or Add RIP Output
Filter.
3. Use the table below to set your RIP Input or Output filter parameters for IPX
routing:
4. Click Save.
Tips
After you create and add a filter for IPX routing on an interface, you must
select The Input Filter Action and Output filter Action from the RIP Summary
parameters.
Warning
The filter action which indicates either to deny or allow packets that match
filter definition applies to all filters. You cannot set a filter action for a specific
filter. When you have decided which action the routing manager must perform
on packets matching a filter definition, the routing manager performs this
action every time it finds a match between packets and filters.
Attribute Description
Input Filter (IF#) Allows you to give a number to the input filter you are creating.
Output Filter
