ASYNC ROUTER AR-P, AR-5, AND SYNC ROUTER USER’S MANUAL

Possible cause #1—The limit on the amount of connection slots available on the NetWare server has been
reached. Check the server to see if the maximum number of users is currently logged in. lf the limit has
been reached, then there are no available slots. In this case, the problem is not caused by the Router.
Possible cause #2—This could be caused by a misconfigured network. Refer to the section below on
misconfigured network.
C.4.8 M ISCONFIGURED N ETWORKS (IPX)

Ethernet frame types—Make sure the frame type(s) configured on each Router match the frame type(s) in
use on the NetWare clients and servers on the LAN.
IPX network numbers—Make sure that a unique IPX network number is configured on the Router for each
Ethernet frame type in use on the LAN. Make sure that the IPX Network Numbers configured on each
Router match those configured on each NetWare server. Note: IPX Network Numbers do not have to be
configured on NetWare clients.
Internal network numbers—Make sure that unique Internal Network Numbers are assigned on each
NetWare server throughout your network.
Console messages—Check your NetWare Server console for messages indicating that the IPX Network
Numbers are set incorrectly. The messages on the server console give the Ethernet address of
misconfigured network nodes.
