RE: IPX Network detection

Try setting the Speed and duplex on both routers and the switch they're
plugged into. I had a problem on my first lab attempt because I let the
router and switch auto configure. As soon as I set the switch and router I
was able to pass traffic.

This problem cost me a bout 2 hours on the lab. I would have left it for
later in the day but the lab had 80% of the network running across that ISL
trunk.

If that doesn't work try doing each encap type on the primary interface and
not on sub-interfaces.

I have heard the solution for this and am testing it in my lab only I am
unsuccessful.

R7 is the IPX router that I don't know the network number to. Here is the
config on the FastEthernet interface:

interface FastEthernet0/0
 ip address 150.50.7.7 255.255.255.128
 duplex auto
 speed auto
 ipx encapsulation SNAP
 ipx network AA

R5 is the router that is trying to detect the network number on it's
Ethernet
segment:

interface FastEthernet0/0
 bandwidth 100000
 ip address 150.50.7.5 255.255.255.128
 duplex auto
 speed auto
 no ipx route-cache
!
interface FastEthernet0/0.1
 ipx network CC
!
interface FastEthernet0/0.2
 ipx network DD encapsulation SNAP
!
interface FastEthernet0/0.3
 ipx network EE encapsulation ARPA
!
interface FastEthernet0/0.4
 ipx network BB encapsulation SAP

I do a "debug ipx packet" and I don't see anything at all. If I "debug ipx
all" I see SAP and RIP updates but that's it, nothing that tells me the
correct network number.

Any ideas??

TIA
