Services for the Novell NetWare Operating System
Services for NetWare (SFN) are compatible with Novell® NetWare® Bindery service for authentication and file access using the
internetwork packet exchange/sequenced packet exchange (IPX/SPX) network protocol. Services for NetWare are disabled by

For information about enabling SFN, see the file install.rtf, which is located in the c:\sfn\fpnw directory of your NAS system.

Configuring the NWLink IPX/SPX Compatible Protocol
To configure this protocol, you need the internal network number, frame type, and network number.
Internal Network Number
Internal network numbers are used for internal routing and are generally needed only for servers. You should not need to
change this option on your system.
Frame Type and Network Number
Frame types define the packet formats that are used by different networks. It is important that all systems in a network have
the same frame type so that they can communicate with the rest of the network.
When you are configuring your system, it attempts to automatically detect the frame type for the client. In most cases, this is
successful. However, the automatic detection feature occasionally selects an inappropriate frame type, usually because more
than one frame type exists on the network. If this happens, you should manually set the frame type to match the one specified
