IPX Routing
indicate if it is static (L- locally configured) or dynamically learned via RIP (R). If it is learned
via RIP, then basic communication between the CyberSWITCH and the local NetWare server
is operational, and it is uncertain why the NetWare server does not respond to the ping request.
Contact Customer Support.
2. Verify that RIP protocol is enabled by entering the following Mange Mode command:
ipxrip
Enable RIP if it is not already enabled.
3. Using the ipxnetif Manage Mode command, verify that IPX RIP send and receive control is
enabled for the LAN interface.
Using CFGEDIT (under IPX network interfaces) enable RIP send and receive control if it is not
already enabled.
4. If the route does not exist, or the route is a static entry, then verify that the CyberSWITCH and
the local NetWare server are using the same packet encapsulation. To check the type of
encapsulation, use the
ipxnetif Manage Mode command. If they are not using the same
encapsulation, then correct it either on the CyberSWITCH or the NetWare server.
5. Verify that the CyberSWITCH and the NetWare server are using the same external IPX
network number for their mutual LAN (AA for this example). To check the network number
that the CyberSWITCH is using, use the
ipxnetif Manage Mode command. If they are not
using the same external network number, then correct the problem.

Problem:
The system does not display the IPX messages indicating successful initiation on Remote LAN
network.
Action:
Check the IPX network interface configuration. Refer to
Configuring IPX Network Interfaces for
details.
Problem:
The CyberSWITCH does not recognize a ipx diag packet from the Remote Bridge.
Action:
Check IPX device information configuration. Refer to
Remote LAN Devices for details.
Problem:
Data is not forwarded from the remote bridge to the router over the Remote LAN interface.
Action:
Check the configuration:
Verify Remote LAN interface configuration. Refer to Configuring IPX Network Interfaces for
