I tried that at. All I got from IOS was something to the effect: You cannot use a local interface for this operation' I guess what your trying to say is use a loopback on a different router from the one where you want the SAP's advertised form. This doesn't seem to make a whole lot of sense however. You might as well just use an interface off another IPX router in your network to do this. To use a loopback interface from another router it must have the IPX network advertised from it so the SAP-originating server can learn it. >From: "Rogell, Dennis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: 'Groupstudy' <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: RE: Bootcamp lab#6 >Date: Tue, 27 Feb 2001 10:24:38 -0500 > >What Kevin is saying and I have done this plenty of times with no problem >is >to configure a loopback address for ipx and use that network number when >creating saps.
