Sequenced Packet Exchange
<networking, protocol> (SPX) A transport layer protocol built on top of
IPX. SPX is used in Novell NetWare systems for communications in client/server
application programs, e.g. BTRIEVE (ISAM manager).
SPX is not used for connections to the file server itself; this uses NCP. It has
been extended as SPX-II. SPX/IPX perform equivalent functions to TCP/IP.
