Novell Products That Provide NLSP Functionality

Which products you need to migrate your internetwork depends on the specifics of the network topology---that is, how many NetWare LANs it comprises, whether it uses WAN connections or third-party routers, and so on. Novell currently offers the following products with NLSP functionality:

• Novell Internet Access Server 4.x software

  This product combines NetWare MultiProtocol Router 3.1 and NetWare 4.11 into a single product.

• NetWare MultiProtocol Router 3.1

  This product provides routing for IPX, TCP/IP, and AppleTalk protocols over LANs and WANs. NetWare MultiProtocol Router 3.1 can be installed on two-user NetWare systems to operate as a dedicated router, or on multiuser NetWare 3.12 servers and NetWare 4^TM servers to provide multiprotocol routing in addition to standard NetWare file and print services.

• Any product that contains NetWare 4.1 or NetWare 4.11

  Any product that contains either release of the NetWare operating system provides NLSP routing for IPX.

• IPX Upgrade for NetWare Servers

  This product provides NLSP routing for IPX on NetWare 3.12 servers by upgrading the IPX protocol stack. You retain all the functionality of the base NetWare operating system but gain the efficiency of NLSP routing.
