Troubleshooting during Setup from the Control Panel
The following section explains some error and alert messages that you may see during
RIP Station Setup.
Network Setup messages
This message:
No AppleTalk zone found.
You must first enable
a network port.
Invalid frame size.
Warning! IPX network
number is zero.
Means:
The Ethernet network cable is not attached to the
connector on the RIP Station, or the network cable is not
plugged into the hub or network. If your AppleTalk
network has zones, and you want to specify a zone for the
RIP Station, you must connect the network cable to the
RIP Station before performing AppleTalk Setup.
Also could mean that the AppleTalk network doesn't have
zones. Zones are not required for printing to the
RIP Station. Press OK to continue.
Enable at least one network port in Port Setup before
beginning Protocol Setup or Service Setup.
The network hub is not connected to a Novell machine
when the RIP Station tries to bind.
No other IPX machine can be found on the network, or
the network hub is not connected to the network, when
the RIP Station tries to bind. When this occurs, the
network number defaults to zero.
