Table8-12 Novell IPX: Intermittent Connectivity (continued)
Possible Problem
Solution
Router is stuck in active
mode (EIGRP only).
If you consistently receive “Stuck-in-Active”
messages about a particular network, you probably
have a flapping route (typically caused by heavy traffic
load).
Route flapping can cause routes to come and go in the
routing table, resulting in intermittent connectivity to
some networks.
Take steps to reduce traffic on the link, or increase the
bandwidth of the link.
For more information about troubleshooting serial
lines, refer to Chapter 15.
1.
If increasing the bandwidth is not possible, buffer management might help alleviate the problem.
Contact the Cisco Technical Assistance Center for assistance in tuning buffers.
