Prestige in an IPX Environment
6.2.1 Prestige on LAN with Server
If your Prestige is on a LAN with a seed router, you do not need to configure the LAN network
numbers. Your Prestige will learn the network number from the seed router and add the routes to
its routing table.
6.2.2 Prestige on LAN without Server
Each IPX network must have a seed router. If you only have NetWare clients on your network,
then you must configure the Prestige as a seed router and set up unique network numbers for each
frame type enabled using the Ethernet Setup Menu.
