When I configure a router with
ipx routing 1111.1111.1111
and then configure a loopback
int lo0
ipx netw 10
if I do a show ipx int lo0 the ipx address is 10.1111.1111.1111
if I then ping this address from the same router (i.e the router on which
this is configured) my pings timeout.
If I do not configure an address with the ipx routing command the ipx add of
the lo0
uses tha mac address of the ethernet interface on the router and when I now
ping the lo0 it works
p 10.0010.7bfe.6cc1
Translating "10.0010.7bfe.6cc1"
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte IPX cisco Echoes to 10.0010.7bfe.6cc1, timeout is 2
seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/1/4 ms
Can anyone explain why this happens. I was thinking of configuring my ipx
routers like the first method above as it makes configuring frame-relay
maps easier to configure and troubleshoot but the side-effect is what I just
described.
Thanks
Bob
