This software allows for the identification and enumeration of IPX nodes within a network.
But that's not all. The program also offers several additional features, such as the ability to print out the hexdump of the ping packet (-h option). Another option is to try and identify the IPX stack on the node (-i option), although the reliability of this feature is questionable at best.
The program also provides the option to parse the diagnostic response (-p option), which gives you a variety of information, including the IPX version, the SPX diagnostic socket, a list of installed components, and a list of interfaces in case of routers, and more.
By default, the program uses all networks in /proc/net/ipx_route. However, if you want to limit the query to a single network, you can use the -n option (like -n 12abc, -n 0 is always the local network).
The program offers a number of available options, including --help for help, -t sec for how much to wait for responses in seconds (default: 2), and -a, which is equivalent to -h -p -i.
Overall, this program seems to offer a range of useful features for anyone needing to work with IPX nodes on a network.
