I think IPX was up on that interface.
A while back I also noticed that IPX broadcasts wouldn't go over PPP. A broadc
ast does seem out of place on a point to point link. And interestingly, PPP is
not among the encapsulations you can specify in the IPX NETWORK statement on t
he serial interface.
I looked for some equivalent of a neighbor command for IPX-RIP and came up dry
also. And since I was on site (new installation I was there to rescue) I got i
t working with PPP BRIDGE IPX. (Bandwidth was not a concern).
I know about IPXWAN. Does anyone have another approach to this problem? How c
an you get IPX RIP broadcasts mapped to layer 2 across a PPP link?

Looks like ppp was not up for ipx.
'debug ppp neg' might show us if ipxcp was failing or something to that
effect.

Hi,
Would anyone please tell me what the error messages mean in the following
output?
R1#sh deb

First time when I configured IPX over PPP serial line there was no problem.
Then some day I configured a different network number on one side of the
connection and moved to studying IP. When I recognized the lost of IPX
connectivity, I turned on debug commands and got the error message as "encap
failed". I changed the IPX network number, disabled IPX routing and then
restarted it, but nothing changed(IP worked well all the time). Finally, I
configured IPXWAN on the link. This time it worked and when I configured IPX
network numbers again the connection was good.
Regards,
Wu
