400 Chapter 8 � Configuring Novell IPX
TABLE 8.2 Novell IPX Frame Types (continued)
Interface Type Novell Frame Type Cisco Keyword
FDDI Fddi_snap snap (default)
Fddi_802.2 sap
Fddi_raw novell-fddi
To change the IPX frame type on Ethernet 0 of 2501A to sap (802.2), use
the encapsulation command, as shown below:
2501A#config t
2501A(config)#int e0
2501A(config-if)#ipx network 10 encapsulation sap
This replaced the existing network number and encapsulation with the
802.2 frame type. If you want to add multiple frame types, you need to either
use the secondary command at the end of the network command line, or
create subinterfaces. Both the secondary command and subinterfaces are
discussed later in this chapter.
To configure a Cisco router into an existing IPX internetwork, you’ll need
the IPX network address and frame type information from the “config”
screen of your NetWare servers for this step. When specifying the encapsulation
type on the router, make sure to use the Cisco keyword, not the Novell
frame type.
Configuring Our Internetwork with IPX
Before you start configuring IPX routing with Cisco routers, let’s take
another look at our internetwork. Figure 8.4 shows the four routers plus the
IP and IPX addressing you’ll be using.
Notice that there are IPX network numbers for all network segments in this
figure. The IP network numbers are the same as the IP subnet numbers. Remember
that IPX addressing has nothing to do with IP, and that you are using the IP
subnet numbers as IPX network numbers only for ease of administration.
