Just for truth: Cisco don't fully discontinued support for IPX in 2011.
In 2011 Cisco discontinued support for IPX only in selected software
lines: 15.1(3)S, 15.2(2)T, 15.1(1)SY, 15.2(1)E, and later.

12.4  supported to January 31, 2016
12.4T supported to November 30, 2016
15.0M supported to April 30, 2017
15.0S don't have EoL/EoS notice
15.1M supported to March 31, 2018
15.2M don't have EoL/EoS notice
15.3M don't have EoL/EoS notice
