IPX Routing Commands
Note:
The ipx diag and the ipx ping commands both test device connectivity (although both
send back different types of responses). However, due to the variety of vendors and
equipment available to networks, one command may work with a particular vendor or
file server, while the other may not. If you are not experiencing success with ipx diag,
try ipx ping, and vice versa.
ipx ping <host ipx address>
Tests connectivity to the specified IPX device by sending out a data packet (echo message). If
connection is up, device responds with an echo reply.
host ipx address
IPX address for the host, in <network number>:<node number> format. The network number
is a hexadecimal number up to eight digits in length. The node number is the host’s MAC
address. For example, if the assigned network number of “AAAA,” and the host has a MAC
address of 40AA68965439. For this example, you would enter “AAAA:40AA68965439” for the
host IPX address.
