IPX Addressing for Novell NetWare
The Novell NetWare network operating system uses a proprietary
protocol called Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX). The IPX protocol
firmware is always available on an HP AdvanceStack 10Base-T Hub; it
becomes active when the hub gets an IPX address. The IPX address
consists of a network number and a device identification. The address is
automatically assigned to the hub as follows (no IPX configuration of
the hub is necessary):
The network number is automatically assigned by a router or file
server on the network that is running the IPX protocol.
The device identification is usually the hub’s station address (also
known as the MAC address, Ethernet address, or physical address).
This address is a unique 12-digit hexadecimal number assigned to the
hub at the factory.
IPX Addressing Notes:
Because the IPX address is assigned automatically, no IPX
configuration is necessary; therefore no IPX configuration is
provided on the hub console interface. By default, the hub is ready
to be managed by an SNMP network management station that is
configured for IPX communications.
If your hub is part of a network that is running IPX only, you do not
need to perform the IP configuration.
