ARA: Cannot Send or Receive Data over ARA Dialin Connection
Possible Causes
Suggested Actions
Missing
arap
network
command entry
1.
Use the
show running-config privileged exec
command to
view the router configuration. If you are running Cisco IOS
Release 10.2 or later, look for an
arap network
global
configuration command entry.
2.
Configure the
arap network
global configuration command
to enable ARA on the router or access server. The syntax for
the
arap network
command is as follows:
arap network
[
network-number
] [
zone-name
]
Syntax Description:
network-number—
(Optional) The AppleTalk network
number. The network number must be unique on your
AppleTalk network. This network is where all ARAP users
appear when they dial in to the network.
•
zone-name—
(Optional) The AppleTalk zone name.
•
Missing
autoselect
command
1.
Use the
show running-config privileged exec
command to
view the router configuration. Check to see whether the
autoselect arap
line configuration command is configured
on the router.
2.
If the command is not present, add it to the configuration.
MNP5 enabled on
answering modem
Check to see whether the answering modem has MNP5 error
correction enabled.
1.
If MNP5 is enabled on the answering modem, disable it. For
information on checking or changing the modem
configuration, refer to the modem documentation.
2.
Zone list is empty
1.
Use the
show appletalk route

Use the show
appletalk interface ethernet exec
command
and make sure that the output matches your Apple network
parameters.
3.
Change the interface configuration as required.
