Everything about Internetwork Packet Exchange
Network protocol
Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX) is the network-layer protocol in the IPX/SPX protocol suite. IPX is derived from Xerox Network Systems' IDP. It also has the ability to act as a transport layer protocol. The IPX/SPX protocol suite was used by Novell's network operating system, NetWare, from the late 1980s through the late 1990s.
