Original Routing Information Protocol (RIP) implementations allowed the use
of network -2 (0xFFFFFFFE) as a regular network number in a network. With
the inception of NetWare Link Services Protocol (NLSP), network -2 is
reserved as the default route for NLSP and RIP. Both NLSP and RIP routers
should treat network -2 as a default route. Therefore, you should implement
network -2 as the default route regardless of whether you configure NLSP in
your IPX network.
By default, Cisco IOS software treats network -2 as the default route. You
should ensure that your IPX network does not use network -2 as a regular
network. If, for some reason, you must use network -2 as a regular network,
you can disable the default behavior.

To disable it, use no ipx default-route
