OUTING
Media Access Control (MAC)-Encapsulated Routing combines routing
and bridging so that routing features (i.e., Address Translation, DNS Proxy,
DHCP Server, etc.) are available in a bridged environment.
There are no specific changes required in the IPX routing configuration to
support MAC-Encapsulated Routing. See
Chapter 5 for instructions on how to enable MAC-Encapsulated Routing.
To display the forwarding table:
I
Go to the Monitor > Routes and Services > IPX Routes screen.
To display the SAP table:
I
Go to the Monitor > Routes and Services > IPX Services screen.
To display the Global IPX counters:
I
Go to the Monitor > Networks > IPX > IPX Counters screen
(indicates the number of data packets received and forwarded or
discarded).
To display the IPX interfaces:
I
Go to the Monitor > Networks > Network Status screen. When a
remote site has been successfully established and IPX is configured, an
entry will be displayed with the Remote Site Name followed by an
"-ipx" suffix.
If the IPX routing has been setup correctly and if the remote network is
functioning, you should be able to access remote Novell servers or
perform other IPX tasks.
If you have problems, you should check the Monitor > Routes and
Services > IPX Routes and IPX Services screens to see if the expected
routes and services have been learned via RIP and SAP.
If remote routes and services have not been learned, check the
Configuration > Remote Sites (WAN) > IPX screens and ensure that
IPX Routing is set to Listen or Listen and Broadcast.
