To verify the operation of IPX Routing over a WAN connection:
1.
Determine if NetWare Client A can see the remote NetWare Server “remote.” To do this,
activate NetWare Client A’s desktop network neighborhood feature. Then check to see if
“remote” is included in Client A’s network neighborhood.
2.
If “remote” is included in Client A’s network neighborhood, them IPX over the WAN
connection is operational. If it does not appear in the network neighborhood, then IPX over the
WAN connection is not operational. Refer to
IPX Routing Over the WAN Connection
in the
Problem Diagnosis chapter.

RIP/SAP
Verify whether or not triggered RIP/SAP has started and is operational:
1.
Determine if triggered RIP/SAP has started by viewing the system messages. To display the
messages, enter the following console command:
dr <RET>
2.
Look for following message among the system messages:
Starting Triggered RIP/SAP for <WAN Peer>
3.
If this message is displayed, continue check to see if Triggered RIP/SAP is operational. If
message is not displayed, refer to
.
4.
Determine if triggered RIP is operational. On the administration console, type:
ipx trigrip stats
5.
Examine statistics for activity. Refer to
for possible statistics and their
descriptions.
6.
Create a change in the route (for example, shut down a server). Again examine statistics (
ipx
trigrip stats)
to verify the change is propagated to other side.
7.
If statistics do not reflect change, refer to
.
8.
Repeat process (beginning at step 4) for SAP, but substitute the following console command:
ipx trigsap stats
