Believe me, I've confused myself.
What I have is a customer that has a mixed IP/IPX network. ALL machines are
dual IP/IPX, so those two protocols will be on one switchport. He is going
to add some servers to the network, but dosen't want IPX on that new network
at all. And he only wants selective IP machines talking to the servers.
What I think I'll do is just create 2 Vlans, 1 for the dual IP/IPX machines
and 1 for the IP servers. If a dual IP/IPX machine wishes to speak to an IP
server, they'll have to use IP and be routed over via a L3 device. I just
want to make sure that the IPX traffic/babble dosen't leak onto the IP
only network somehow just because they're on same switch. I think with
VLANS, it will be solved, as broadcasts and other babble will never get
there. But I just want to be sure.
Is my solution the way to go?

what?
Now you've compeltely lost me!
do you want to tunnel ipx and route to various vlans?
I mean... If you have ipx on 1 interface and ip on the other, and they are
on the same vlan, then you're done. But they won't route between the two
because they are two different protocols.
If you want them on two separate vlans and want to route between them, then
you're back to square 1 and you have to place ipx and ip on on interfaces.

One more thing, if I can tag IP and IPX, how do I route between the 2 vlans
if one is IP and the other IPX?

That's exactly what I was looking for, but can you tag IPX. I kept
thinking
that you could only tag IP. Now that I think of it, tagging is L2, so I
could tag it, couldn't I?

in the old days of vlan switching, there was serious discussion of
using
vlans to separate traffic by protocol. set up ports 1,3 and 5 as IP and
ports 2,4, and 6 as IPX. More importantly, put all those renegade
AppleTalk
users on their own VLAN so their traffic doesn't bother people with
real
work to do ( ;- ) I don't know if there is serious talk of this any
more.
Is this kinda what you had in mind?

What are some good ways to separate IP and IPX traffic on a LAN?
