Configuring IPX
This example ( Figure 15 ) illustrates the steps required to configure a pair of
routers to create a Novell® IPX internetwork, using the router’s command line
interface. In this scenario, PCs at a remote office need access to a Novell file
server at the Head Office site. The two sites are connected by a PPP link over a
wide area link—either a dedicated leased line or an ISDN call.
