326 Chapter 5: Network Protocols
47
How many subnets could be created if using static length masks in a Class B network
when the mask is 255.255.255.224? What about when the mask is 255.255.252.0?
48
How many bytes comprise an IPX address?
49
What do IPX and SPX stand for?
50
Define encapsulation in the context of Cisco routers and Novell IPX.
51
Give an example of an IPX network mask used when subnetting.
52
Describe the headers used for two types of Ethernet encapsulation when using IPX.
53
Name the part of the NetWare protocol specifications that, like TCP, provides end-to-end
guaranteed delivery of data.
54
Name the command that lists all the SAP entries in a Cisco router.
55
How many different values are possible for IPX network numbers?
56
Create a configuration enabling IPX on each interface, with RIP and SAP enabled on each
as well, for a 2501 (two serial, one Ethernet) router. Use networks 100, 200, and 300 for
interfaces S0, S1, and E0, respectively. Choose any node values.
57
In the previous question, what would be the IPX address of the serial 0 interface? If
another user wanted to know but did not have the enable password, what command(s)
might provide this IPX address?
58
What show command lists the IPX address(es) of interfaces in a Cisco router?
59
How many Novell encapsulation types are valid in the IOS for Ethernet interfaces? What
about for FDDI and Token Ring?
60
A router is attached to an Ethernet LAN. Some clients on the LAN use Novell's
Ethernet_II encapsulation, and some use Ethernet_802.3. If the only subcommand on
Ethernet0 reads ipx network 1, which of the clients are working? (All, Ethernet_II, or
Ethernet_802.3?)
61
A router is attached to an Ethernet LAN. Some clients on the LAN use Novell's
Ethernet_802.2 encapsulation, and some use Ethernet_SNAP. Create a configuration that
allows both types of clients to send and receive packets through this router.
62
True or false: Up to 64 IPX networks can be used on the same Ethernet by using the IPX
secondary address feature. If true, describe the largest number that is practically needed.
If false, what is the maximum number that is legal on an Ethernet?
63
In the ipx network 11 interface subcommand, does the IOS assume that 11 is binary,
octal, decimal, or hexadecimal? What is the largest valid value that could be configured
instead of 11?
64
What IOS IPX encapsulation keyword implies use of an 802.2 header but no SNAP
header? On what types of interfaces is this type of encapsulation valid?
