AppleTalk: Users Cannot Access Zones or Services
Possible Problems
Solution
Configuration mismatch
1.
Use the
show appletalk interface exec
command.
Check the output for a “port configuration mismatch”
message.
If the command output contains a “mismatch” message,
the router configuration disagrees with that of the listed
neighbor.
If the command output does not include the “mismatch”
message, use the
clear apple interface privileged exec
command on the interface in question. If the interface
becomes operational after clearing, a configuration
mismatch does not exist.
Enter the
show appletalk interface exec
command
again. If its output still contains a “port configuration
mismatch” message, check whether all router
configurations agree on the network number or cable
range and the zone or zone list.
2.
If router configurations disagree on these parameters,
alter router configurations to bring all routers into
alignment.
3.
If problems persist, put the problem router in
discovery mode by specifying the interface
configuration command
appletalk address 0.0
on a
nonextended network or the
appletalk cable-range 0-0
command on an extended
network. This causes the router to get its
configuration information from the network.
For more information about configuration mismatches,
see the section “AppleTalk Configuration Mismatches”
later in this chapter.
