Troubleshooting Novell Connectivity

this example, the router has a high-speed serial interface (HSSI) that is con-
figured for IPX. In addition to show running-config, this command is use-
ful for locating IPX access lists that may block SAP traffic.

As indicated previously, out-of-date access lists are a frequent cause of

network problems. Access lists serve as a powerful tool for network man-
agement and security, but misunderstood or forgotten lists can prevent con-
nectivity when needed.

The output from this command also provides information about NetBIOS

over IPX (type 20) packets, the number of packets sent and received for IPX
RIP and SAP, and the status of watchdog and SPX spoof functions.
