Troubleshooting Novell IPX 8-153

IPX RIP: SAP Updates Not Propagated by Router

Symptom: Novell SAP packets are not forwarded through a router running IPX RIP. Clients might

be unable to connect to servers over one or more routers, or they might intermittently be able to

connect.

Note Procedures for troubleshooting IPX RIP problems not speciﬁc to SAPs are described in the

section “IPX RIP: No Connectivity over IPX RIP Router” earlier in this chapter. Additional

problems relating to intermittent connectivity problems are described in the section “Novell IPX:

Intermittent Connectivity” later in this chapter.

Table 8-7 outlines the problems that might cause this symptom and describes solutions to those

problems.

Routes not redistributed

correctly

Step 4 Make certain redistribution is conﬁgured between IPX RIP and the

desired protocols. Make sure all the desired networks are speciﬁed for

redistribution.

Note: Route redistribution is enabled automatically between IPX RIP and

Enhanced IGRP

and between IPX RIP and NLSP.

For detailed information on conﬁguring route redistribution, see the Network

Protocols Conﬁguration Guide, Part 1.

Router not propagating SAPs For information on troubleshooting this problem, refer to the following section

“IPX RIP: SAP Updates Not Propagated by Router.”

1 Enhanced IGRP = Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol

2 NLSP = NetWare Link Services Protocol
