Configuring NetWare to Minimize WAN Connections
Page 27-34
6. Novell has developed a workaround that can be used to disable the SPX Watchdog mech-
anism. This workaround could be used instead of enabling the SPX Spoofing feature on
your switch. SPWXDOG.NLM is a patch that is used to disable NetWare’s SPX Watchdog
mechanism on 3.x and 4.x servers. The patch adds the following file server set parameter:
“set spx watchdogs=ON/OFF” (The default is ON.)
To fully disable SPX Watchdog packets, the remote client/server should also disable
Watchdogs.
IPXODI v3.02 and IPX.NLM support a NET.CFG parameter to disable SPX
Watchdogs (“spx watchdog=off”).
