Use this page to configure IPXTM settings for the IPX 32-bit protocol.
Allow IPX Access through Interrupt 7Ah
Check the Enabled box to enable distribution of this setting to all associated
workstations. After you enable the distribution, this option becomes available
for configuration.
Default: On
To allow DOS applications to use interrupt 7Ah to access IPX services, check
this box.
If a DOS application experiences problems because IPX is hooking interrupt 7Ah, uncheck this box.
To allow applications to use interrupt 7Ah for something other than access to IPX services, uncheck this box.
If an application works with NetWare 4.x but hangs with NetWare 3.1, uncheck this box.
Applications should use interrupt 2Fh to get the File Address Register (FAR) call address and then use that address to access IPX services. This method is preferred because it eliminates conflicting use of interrupt 7Ah.
Allow IPX Access through Interrupt 64h
Check the Enabled box to enable distribution of this setting to all associated
workstations. After you enable the distribution, this option becomes available
for configuration.
Default: On
To allow DOS applications to use interrupt 64h to access IPX services, check
this box.
If a DOS application is experiencing problems because IPX is hooking interrupt 64h, uncheck this box.
To allow applications to use interrupt 64h for something other than access to IPX services, uncheck this box.
If an application works with NetWare 4.x but hangs with NetWare 3.1, uncheck this box.
Applications should use interrupt 2Fh to get the File Address Register (FAR) call address and then use that address to access IPX services. This method is preferred because it eliminates conflicting use of interrupt 64h.
IPX Retry Count
Check the Enabled box to enable distribution of this setting to all associated
workstations. After you enable the distribution, this option becomes available
for configuration.
Range: 0 to 65535 (tries)
Default: 20
Specify the number of times the workstation should try to find a route to a
destination.
Incrementing this number also increments the SPXTM retry count.
If IPX or SPX applications are timing out, increase the value of this setting.
IPX uses this setting differently than it did for previous NetWare® clients.
IPX Diagnostics Enabled
Check the Enabled box to enable distribution of this setting to all associated
workstations. After you enable the distribution, this option becomes available
for configuration.
Default: On
To enable the IPX diagnostics function, check this box.
Uncheck this box only if you don't want an administrator to be able to query IPX and SPX statistics for this workstation.
Pre-Allocate VGNMA Memory (IPX Diagnostic)
Check the Enabled box to enable distribution of this setting to all associated
workstations. After you enable the distribution, this option becomes available
for configuration.
Default: Off
To allocate conventional memory for VGNMA operation, check this box. Preallocate
VGNMA memory for 16-bit GNMA Responder applications if they don't work correctly
otherwise.
Enable Source Routing over NDIS
Check the Enabled box to enable distribution of this setting to all associated
workstations. After you enable the distribution, this option becomes available
for configuration.
Default: Off
If you are using an NDIS driver for a Token Ring or FDDI network adapter and
you want to use source routing, check this box.
This setting applies to all logical boards presented by all Token Ring and FDDI NDIS* drivers.
ODITM LAN drivers do not use this functionality.
