DESCRIPTION
ipx_interface adds, deletes, or displays IPX interfaces depending on the option selected.An IPX interface is the item to which IPX sockets are bound. An IPX interface corresponds to an IPX Network Number which corresponds to a physical device and frame type. A sample IPX Interface would be:
Network Number: 0x00ABCDEF
Device: Eth0
Frame Type: 802.2.
There is a special IPX interface per host known as the PRIMARY or default interface.
You should specify node number only if you really know, what you are doing - on point-to-point devices, on loopback and on tap device if you are running Compatibility mode driver.
