Customizing PPP
117360-A Rev. A 3-5
Beginning at the Configuration Manager window, complete the tasks in the
following table to specify an IP address for a remote peer.
Defining an IPX Network Number and Node Number for a Remote Peer
Site Manager lets you specify an IPX network number and an IPX node number
that you want the remote peer to use. The interface uses these numbers in its NCP
negotiations.
Enter the IPX network number for the remote peer to use. There is no default
value; you can enter any unique, valid, unreserved IPX network number,
consisting of a string of up to eight hexadecimal characters. The value 0xffffffff is
invalid.
The negotiated network number must be unique. It cannot be a previously
assigned network number. Note that both sides of the link do not have to have the
same network number; PPP negotiates the higher of the two numbers. In addition,
the negotiated IPX network number can be 0 on both sides of the link. In this case,
IPX defines the link’s network number.
Be aware that the value for this parameter depends on the IPX configuration for
this interface. For information about IPX and PPP interaction, refer to
Configuring IPX Services.
If you want to specify an IPX node number for the remote peer to use, enter it
here. The interface uses this IPX remote node number in its NCP negotiations.
