Hi,

I thought I had this worked a while back, but I'm no
longer sure as I'm completely blind now. Below is the
topology and the configs.

Thanks,
Chang

Topology

R8---serial bg2-R6---ether bg2----r9--bvi2

R8: just a router simulate an end station
R6: bridge, no ipx routing
R9: irb
Goal: ping from R8's s1/0 to R9's BVI
=============================================

Router configs

R8 - end station:

ipx routing 0008.0008.0008
!
interface Serial1/0
 ipx network 800
!
!

R6 - bridge:

!
interface Ethernet0
 bridge-group 2
!
interface Serial0
 bridge-group 2
!

R9 - irb router:

ipx routing 00e0.1ea9.bf64
!
bridge irb
!
interface Ethernet0
 bridge-group 2
!
interface BVI2
 ipx network 800
!
!
bridge 2 route ipx
