 It will look a bit different to the GOG stock files. You can still use the before mentioned [[#IPX Peer to Peer]] approach (selecting //IPXWrapper UDP encapsulation//). But you can now also select the //DOSBox UDP encapsulation// option. If you do, you need to provide the hostname or IP of the IPX server, as well as the UDP port it listens on.

+You will not have to keep that window open, to play via IPX. Due to the registration above, all IPX traffic is routed via the given IPX server. The settings made by the configuration tool are stored in the registry (//HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\IPXWrapper//) on a per-user-basis.
-If you use varying settings for the IPX Wrapper, you may want to make things easier for you in the future: You can create a file named ''armada_with_ipx.bat'' with the following content:
-<code>
-start ipxconfig.exe
-start Armada.exe
-</code>
-When you start this batch file, the IPX client will be started along with Armada. This means IPX is available right away. But for normal operations it is not required.
 ===== Open LAN game =====
 To create a game in the LAN, you must follow the menu path //Multiplayer// -> //Local Area Network (TCP/IP)// or //Local Area Network (IPX)// (depending on whether you are [[#using IPX]] or not).
