The Windows 2000–based computer running the Routing and Remote Access service, known as the Windows 2000 Router, provides a rich set of features to support IPX internetworks:
IPX Packet Filtering Input and output filters for each interface, configured using key fields in the IPX header.
RIP for IPX Full support for Routing Information Protocol (RIP) for IPX, the primary routing protocol used in IPX internetworks.
IPX Route Filtering Filtering for incoming routes and for the announcement of routes.
Static IPX Routes Static IPX routes that are advertised using RIP for IPX.
SAP for IPX Full support for Service Advertising Protocol (SAP), the mechanism by which the names and addresses of services running on IPX nodes are collected and distributed for NetWare clients.
SAP Filtering The filtering of incoming service names and the announcement of service names.
Static SAP Services Static SAP service names that are advertised using SAP.
NetBIOS Broadcast Propagation The forwarding of NetBIOS over IPX broadcasts, flexibly configured over local area networks (LAN) and demand-dial interfaces.
Static NetBIOS Names Static NetBIOS names that can be configured so that NetBIOS over IPX name query broadcasts for specific NetBIOS names can be forwarded using specific interfaces.
Platform to Support Other IPX Routing Protocols A platform to support additional IPX routing protocols, such as NetWare Link Services Protocol (NLSP). (The Windows 2000 Router does not provide NLSP, but NLSP can be provided by third party independent software vendors.)
