IPXS

Provides IPX^TM protocol to NLM^TM programs that require STREAMS-based IPX.

[LOAD] [path]IPXS [LDFILE = [path]filename[.ext]]

Parameter	Use to
path	Specify the path to IPXS.NLM if you moved it from the default directory.
LDFILE = [path]\filename[.ext]	(Optional) Specify a filename that contains the SAP filtering, SAP and RIP timers, and IPX configuration parameters. Note: If you don't specify a filename, IPXS sets the parameters defined in the IPXSPX.CFG file. If you don't specify a file extension, the default is .CFG. For example, to load an alternate configuration file, type [LOAD] IPXS LDFILE = IPXSPX2.CFG

Parameter

Use to

path

Specify the path to IPXS.NLM if you moved it from the default directory.

LDFILE = [path]\filename[.ext]

(Optional) Specify a filename that contains the SAP filtering, SAP and RIP timers, and IPX configuration parameters.

Note: If you don't specify a filename, IPXS sets the parameters defined in the IPXSPX.CFG file.

If you don't specify a file extension, the default is .CFG.

For example, to load an alternate configuration file, type

[LOAD] IPXS LDFILE = IPXSPX2.CFG

NOTE: The IPXSPX.CFG file is modified from the INETCFG utility when you set SPX/IPX^TM parameters.

When you load IPXS, STREAMS is autoloaded.

IPXSPX.CFG contains the Service Advertising Protocol (SAP) filtering, SAP and Router Information Protocol (RIP) timers, and the IPX configuration defaults.

You can create multiple configuration files in addition to IPXSPX.CFG. Use this feature if you frequently alternate between two or more IPX/SPX^TM configurations.
To create multiple configuration files, copy the IPXSPX.CFG file to a new filename (IPXSPX2.CFG, for example). Then you can change the IPXSPX.CFG file (by using INETCFG) and still preserve the original configuration in the IPXSPX2.CFG file.

To load a configuration file other than the default IPXSPX.CFG file, use the LDFILE option.
For example, if you have a second configuration file called IPXSPX2.CFG, you can load that configuration by typing
[LOAD] IPXS LDFILE = IPXSPX2
