SetIPXFrameTypeNetworkPairs method of the Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration class
[The Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX) technology is no longer available for use as of Windows Server 2008, and this method is obsolete.]
Windows Server 2003 : The SetIPXFrameTypeNetworkPairs WMI class method is used to set the Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX) network number and frame pairs for this network adapter.
This topic uses Managed Object Format (MOF) syntax. For more information about using this method, see Calling a Method.
Syntax
uint32 SetIPXFrameTypeNetworkPairs(
[in] string IPXNetworkNumber[],
[in] uint32 IPXFrameType[]
);
Parameters
IPXNetworkNumber [in]
Array of characters that uniquely identify an IPX network. This IPX number is sometimes referred to as the External Network Number, and it must be unique for each network segment. The values in this string list must have a corresponding value in the IPXFrameType parameter that identifies the packet frame type used for this network.
IPXFrameType [in]
Integer array of frame type identifiers. The values in this array correspond to the elements in the IPXNetworkNumber parameter.
Ethernet II (0)
Ethernet 802.3 (1)
Ethernet 802.2 (2)
Ethernet SNAP (3)
AUTO (255)
Return value
The SetIPXFrameTypeNetworkPairs method returns one of the following values. For more information on error codes, see WMI Error Constants or WbemErrorEnum. For general HRESULT values, see System Error Codes.

Remarks
Windows uses an IPX network number for routing purposes. A network number is assigned to each configured frame type and network adapter combination on your computer system. This number is sometimes referred to as the external network number, and it must be unique for each network segment. If the frame type is set to AUTO, the network number should be zero.
Examples
The Modify the IPX Frame Type VBScript sample configures the IPX network number and frame type for a network adapter.
