ipx_configure

IPX_CONFIGURE(8)					      System Manager's Manual						  IPX_CONFIGURE(8)

NAME

       ipx_configure - query/configure IPX behavior

SYNOPSIS

       ipx_configure [ --help | -h ] [ --auto_interface=on|off | -i on|off ] [ --auto_primary=on|off | -p on|off ]

DESCRIPTION

       ipx_configure queries or configures IPX behavior with respect to automatic IPX interface detection.  IPX can be configured to automatically
       create interfaces as they are detected.	It can also be configured to automatically select a primary  interface	when  none  is	explicitly
       selected.   By  default,  it  is  configured to NOT have this behavior.	Without arguments, ipx_configure returns the current configuration
       state.  The behavior with arguments is described in the section OPTIONS.

OPTIONS

       --auto_interface=on|off
       -i on|off
	  This argument either turns on or off the behavior of automatically creating interfaces.

       --auto_primary=on|off
       -p on|off
	  This argument either turns on or off the behavior of automatically selecting a primary interface.

       --help
       -h
	  Print out information about utility.

FILES

       /proc/net/ipx_interface

BUGS

       This functionality really belongs in ifconfig(8).
