WAN IP Bridge/Netmask

Write security: 2; Read security: 5

This is the network mask to be applied to the virtual Ethernet port.

WAN IP Bridge/Triggered

Write security: 2; Read security: 5

When set to

Yes

, only IP RIP updates are sent when the routing table

has changed. When set to

No

(def), updates are sent periodically.

WAN IP Bridge/Proxy ARP

If this option is set to

Yes

(def), the Express L768 will proxy ARP on

the bridge IP port. See the section IP/Proxy ARP on page 3-18 for an ex-
planation of the proxy ARP function.

»» Bridge/WAN IPX Bridge

When IPX routing is active, the Express L768 will allow another WAN
device to bridge IPX packets to it using PPP BCP. Normally, two IPX
routers would negotiate PPP IPXCP to exchange IPX packets. How-
ever, if a device can only support PPP BCP, IPX packets are encapsu-
lated by the device as bridge packets. The Express L768 can treat the
WAN IPX Bridge as a virtual Ethernet port connected only to a WAN
device which has negotiated PPP BCP. This menu allows the IPX pa-
rameters for this virtual Ethernet to be set up.

WAN IPX Bridge/Network

Write security: 2; Read security: 5

This is the network address of the virtual Ethernet port. See IPX/Net-
work
on page 3-19 for an explanation of the IPX network number.

RIP version, method, and direction are determined by the
Ethernet parameters set in the

Configuration/IP/IP

Router/RIP

menu.
