The IPX protocol and the IP protocol are two different network layer protocols. Their routing protocols are different. The IPX route protocol is not as rich as the IP routing protocol, so it is easy to set up. However, the Encapsulation Format must be specified when IPX is used over Ethernet.

Example:
In this example, the IPX network of the WAN is 3a00, And the IPX network of the LAN connected by Router1 is 2a00. There is a Novell Server in the LAN, and the IPX network number is 2a00, the IPX network number of the router interface must be the same as the IPX network number set on the Novell Server of the same network. The router establishes known services and its own network address table by listening to SAP, and sends its own SAP table every 60 seconds.
