[. . . ] The software supports two different types of IPX pings: Novell-- used to test the reachability of NetWare servers currently running the NetWare Loadable Module called IPXRTR. NLM; and alcatel--used to test the reachability of Alcatel switches on which IPX routing has been enabled. ping ipx network_number network_node [count packets] [size bytes] [timeout seconds] [type packet_type] Syntax Definitions network_number network_node packets bytes seconds packet_type Network of the node you want to ping. Node you want to ping in hexadecimal format (xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx). Number of ping messages (packets) to send. Valid range is 1­8192 (1­1492 for Ethernet) Number of seconds in which a response must be returned (0 = infinite). Packet type (novell or alcatel). Defaults parameter packets bytes seconds packet_type default 5 64 1 novell Platforms Supported OmniSwitch 6800, 7700, 7800, 8800 Usage Guidelines · When entering the network number you only need to enter the necessary characters and the system will backfill the remainder of the number format. · Use the basic command to send a default packet. The packet will use the default parameters for count, size, timeout, and type. · Use the novell packet type to test the reachability of NetWare servers running the NetWare Loadable Module (IPXRTR. NLM). This type cannot be used to reach NetWare workstations running IPXODI. Novell uses a unique type of ping for this purpose (implemented by their IPXPNG. EXE program) which is not currently supported by the switch software. Other vendors' switches may respond to this type of ping. OmniSwitch CLI Reference Guide March 2005 page 26-9 ping ipx IPX Commands · Use the alcatel packet type to test the reachability of Alcatel switches on which IPX routing is enabled. · Alcatel switches respond to either ping type.

IPX RIP filters allow you to minimize the number of entries put in the IPX RIP Routing Table. RIP filters work only on switches running the RIP protocol. They do not work for routers running the NLSP protocol. ipx filter [vlan] rip {in | out} {allow | block} [network_number [mask network_mask]] no ipx filter [vlan] rip {in | out} {allow | block} [network_number [mask network_mask]] Syntax Definitions vlan in out allow block network_number network_mask To apply the filter to a specific VLAN or delete a filter from a specific VLAN, enter the VLAN number. Allows the traffic specified in the filter. Blocks the traffic specified in the filter. To apply the filter to a specific network or delete a filter from a specific network, enter the IPX network number. If you are configuring a specific network as described above, enter the network mask. Defaults parameter vlan allow | block network_number network_mask default 0 allow 00000000 ffffffff Platforms Supported OmniSwitch 6800, 7700, 7800, 8800 Usage Guidelines · Use the no form of the command to delete a RIP filter. · To apply a global filter, use only the basic command syntax (e. g. , ipx filter rip in allow). Do not enter the optional vlan, network, or network_mask parameters. · If you do not enter a network number, the filter will be applied to all networks. · Use RIP filters with care because they can partition a physical network into two or more segments. OmniSwitch CLI Reference Guide March 2005 page 26-11 ipx filter rip IPX Commands · The default setting for all filters is to allow traffic. [. . . ] Licensee is notified that Apptitude, Inc.
