I am working thru IPX Routing Lab 330
(http://www.fatkid.com/html/challenges.html) from fatkid.com and I have
a couple of questions:
(1) In the hints section (2a) it states that Netware 3.12 servers
default to Novell's 802.3 encapsulation (novell-ether) and Netware 4.0
and above use 802.2 (sap). It's been a while since I setup a Netware
3.12 server but I was pretty sure it defaulted to 802.2. (I agree with
the Netware 4.0 and above) This doesn't really matter *unless* they do
something like this in the lab. I would hope that cisco would specify
the desired frame type in the lab rather than expect one to know the
Netware defaults per version.
(2) Again in the hints section (3c) it states that "NLSP cannot be sent
out out on HDLC encapsulated IPX serial connections". My NLSP seems to
work fine on my HDLC interfaces. Caslow says (pg 514) that "NLSP cannot
be configured on loopback interfaces or physical Frame-Relay interfaces.
Also, it cannot be configured on frame-relay multipoint interfaces". He
doesn't mention HDLC. Should NLSP work across HDLC ?
(3) Hints sections (3c) again, "NLSP requires IPXWAN on serial
circuits". Again, my NLSP seems to work fine without IPXWAN on the
serial circuits. I intend to reconfigure with IPXWAN on them but it
doesn't seem to be *required*.
Am I missing something here?
TIA,
ST
