Notice that the routing table has 14 IPX routes now instead of the five we
had earlier. You did not add any new physical networks, but the new networks
are the new encapsulations you added for each network. The three
LANs each advertise four IPX networks every 60 seconds out each active
interface. Imagine if you had 20 routers and you added all the frame types!
There is one more consideration when adding multiple frame types on a
LAN: the SAP activity. Service Advertisement Protocol (SAP) is broadcast
over every active interface every 60 seconds. If you have multiple frame types
configured on a LAN, the broadcast is sent out in every frame type possible.
If you only send one SAP packet, which is unlikely, you would send that
same packet out four times. If you have multiple SAP packets, you send each
packet out four times every 60 seconds.
Monitoring IPX on Cisco Routers
Once you have IPX configured and running, there are several ways to
verify and track that your router is communicating correctly. The following
commands will be covered:
� show ipx servers
� show ipx route
� show ipx traffic
� show ipx interface
� show protocol
� debug ipx
� IPX ping
