- <H2>Syntax IPX/IP Gateway</H2>
- <P>
- WebFORCE systems are shipped with <EM>Syntax TotalNET Advanced Server
- (TAS)</EM> and <EM>Syntax TotalNET INETgateway</EM> software installed.
- These programs connect personal computers running Windows or NetWare
- networking applications, Macintosh computers running AppleTalk, and UNIX
- computers running TCP/IP so that they can share resources. The WebFORCE
- product provides a preinstalled license for one user to access the
- <EM>TotalNET Advanced Server </EM>and the <EM>INETgateway</EM>. You can
- purchase additional licenses from Syntax directly (see
- <I>www.syntax.com</I>).</P>
- <P>
- TAS and INETgateway each perform specific services:
- </P>
- <UL>
- <LI>
- <EM>TAS</EM> translates the various networking protocols that each
- type of computer uses: Server Message Block (SMB) and Novell
- Directory Service (NDS) protocols, which are used on networked PCs;
- Network File System (NFS) protocol, which is used on networked UNIX
- (and IRIX) systems; and the AppleTalk protocol, which is used on
- networked Macintosh computers.
-
- <LI>
- <EM>INETgateway</EM> enables PC clients running NetWare to access
- the Internet without TCP/IP software, which eliminates the need for
- configuring IP addresses on these clients. The <EM>INETgateway</EM>
- program also enables a Silicon Graphics server to receive
- Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX)/Sequence Packet Exchange (SPX)
- requests from these PCs and send them to the Internet using TCP/IP,
- the standard protocol for UNIX and the Internet.
- </UL>
- <P>
- To configure both <EM>TAS</EM> and <EM>INETgateway,</EM> use the <A
- HREF="index.syntax1.shtml" TARGET="left">Syntax Administration</A> form.
- </P>
- <P>
- When you use this form, a <EM>Syntax</EM> login screen requests a
- username and password. You can enter any valid name and password for an
- account on the Gateway system. This is not necessarily the login name
- and password that you assigned to the Internet Gateway server.</P>
