Preparing to Install 49
♦♦ NetWare for SAA
For information on problems with NetWare for SAA 1.3b, refer to the
NetWare MultiProtocol Router 3.1 Release Notes, pp. 28-29.
For information on problems with NetWare for SAA 2.0 and Net-
Ware MultiProtocol Router for ISDN 3.1 on the same server, refer to
the NetWare MultiProtocol Router 3.1 Release Notes, pp. 4-5 and
pp. 29-30.
♦♦ NetWare Management System
The SNMP MIB definitions for IPX are not shipped with NetWare
Management System
TM
(NMS
TM
) 2.0b software. The MIB definition
for IPX (in ASN.1 format) and the ISDN-related MIBs are on the
NetWare MultiProtocol Router for ISDN 3.1 CD-ROM in the /
IPXSERV/SUPP/REFMIBS directory. Install these MIBs to all sys-
tems running NMS 2.0b to display full information about any SNMP
traps generated by the IPX protocol.
PPP Over ISDN
PPP over ISDN (in the following referred to as PPP) is intended to
provide interoperability between routers of different manufacturers
over ISDN based on internationally accepted and open standards,
described in so-called Requests for Comment (RFCs). RFCs are
issued by manufactureres and/or interest groups in the form of RFC
drafts or informational RFCs and are ratified by the Internet Engi-
neering Task Force (IETF).
For information on third-party router products that have been tested
with NetWare MultiProtocol Router for ISDN 3.1, refer to the Techni-
cal Note included with the NetWare MultiProtocol Router for ISDN
3.1.
For information on whether or not your NetWare MultiProtocol
Router for ISDN 3.1 will interoperate with a third-party router
product, take the list of RFCs in Table 2-1 and check which of the
listed RFCs are supported by the third-party product.
The same is true for service providers offering ISDN access via
router products to any type of services, such as Internet Service
Providers like EUnet in Europe for example. Ask them which router
product they are using to provide ISDN access and which RFCs are
used by the routers.
