IPX RIP: No Connectivity over IPX RIP Router (continued)
Possible Problem
Solution
Routes not
redistributed
correctly
Routes not
redistributed
correctly
1.
Use the
show ipx route
privileged exec command to see the
IPX routing table.
2.
Examine the routing table and make sure that routes have
been learned by the expected protocol and from the expected
interface.
3.
Use the
show running-config
privileged exec command to
view the router configuration. Check each
ipx router
global
configuration command entry and the associated
redistribute
commands, if any.
4.
Make certain that redistribution is configured between IPX
RIP and the desired protocols. Make sure that all the desired
networks are specified for redistribution.
Note: Route redistribution is enabled automatically between IPX
RIP and Enhanced IGRP,
1
and between IPX RIP and NLSP.

For detailed information on configuring route redistribution, see
the
Network Protocols Configuration Guide, Part 1.
Router not
propagating SAPs
For information on troubleshooting this problem, refer to the
section “IPX RIP: SAP Updates Not Propagated by Router,” later
in this chapter.
1.
Enhanced IGRP = Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol
2.
NLSP = NetWare Link Services Protocol
IPX RIP: SAP Updates Not Propagated by Router
Symptom
: Novell SAP packets are not forwarded through a router running IPX RIP. Clients might be
incapable of connecting to servers over one or more routers, or they might intermittently be capable of
connecting.
Note
Procedures for troubleshooting IPX RIP problems not specific to SAPs are described in the
section “IPX RIP: No Connectivity over IPX RIP Router,” earlier in this chapter. Additional
problems relating to intermittent connectivity problems are described in the section
“Novell IPX: Intermittent Connectivity,” later in this chapter.
