In the simplest form:
multiring all | multiring ip | multiring IPX - Enables RIF caching and
allows routed protocols to be bridged.
Example:
DLSw is used to connect bridged domains through an Internet Protocol
(IP) cloud; the traffic doesn't have to be
Systems Network Architecture (SNA), it can be IPX bridged.
Create a loopback interface on two remote token-ring routers.
Under the loopback assign the same Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX)
network.
The 'multiring ipx' command allows the router to generate Routing
Information Field (RIF) on behalf of routed traffic.
So now you have simulated a bridged domain, seperated by DLSw. You
should be able to ping the IPX address of either remote router.

Subject: OT: RIF field - Multiring All
Hi,
Could someone possibly explain to me in plain english when you would
enable use of the RIF field, and when it would not be used. I'm not
finding a very clear explanation of this.
thanks,
