Description

ipx_internal_net adds or deletes the IPX internal network. An IPX internal network is a special kind of IPX interface that does not have a physical device or frame type. It is used to provide a route-independent address for service providers. Internal networks are optional; however, when one is present it is also the Primary Interface. There can only be one internal network per host.
