ipx secondary

Determines whether the system enables secondary routes and servers.

Valid Minimum Abbreviation

ipx sec

Important Considerations

This option allows the system to learn about secondary routes and
secondary servers.

With this option, a secondary route/server entry can replace a primary
route/server entry when the primary route/server is removed from the
routing/server table for any reason (for example, if the associated
interface goes down, or if the primary entry reaches its age limit).

For this option to have any effect, you must establish alternate paths
to the same IPX network or server.

After you enable the IPX secondary route/server option, you can
display entries for any secondary routes or servers. (See “ipx route
secondary”
and “ipx server secondary” earlier in this chapter.)
