Did a little home work on this one -
IPXWAN is a client / server application.  The highest IPX internal network
is selected as the server (master) & the other router (slave) is selected
for the client -- thus the depenance on the internal IPX network.  If I am
remembering correctly routes in the ipx table show the next hops as nodes on
the master router from the client routers perspective.
So,  thinking about frame-relay full mesh connectivity would have be enabled
(frame maps etc. see Caslow) for the hellos to establish neighbor
relationships.  As far as I can tell NLSP does not distinguish between
broadcast (no designated router election) & no-broadcast networks.  Thus,
all the multipoint/point-to-point tricks are not available as in OSPF.
IPX is a stretch for me if anyone has additional clarity here - it would be
helpful.
Thanx,
roger schotsal
