4.8 ipx

Change to IPX mode

Syntax

ipx [ipx_command param...]

Description

When in TCP/IP mode, use the ipx command to enter IPX mode. The Router is always in one of two
modes, and the prompt always indicates the current mode:

• (ipx)Router>

Router is in IPX mode

• (tcp/ip)Router>

Router is in TCP/IP mode

The protocol mode is set per-session. Individually logged-in users can have different modes set.

Depending upon what mode it is in, the Router software selects the command set and help/usage strings
available to the user for the current mode (protocol).

The user can also execute a command from a different mode by prefixing the command with the mode.

Example

For example, to display the IPX routing table while in TCP/IP mode, at the prompt enter

(tcp/ip)Router> ipx route

This command will switch to the IPX mode, execute the route command, and then return to the

TCP/IP mode.
