If you have access to an image that supports APPN, you can configure your routers as APPN nodes. If the nodes are able to connect, then your RSRB/DLSw+ configs are working. Here is the link to a post in the archives:
http://www.groupstudy.com/archives/cisco/200106/msg01186.html You can also test your configs using IP even though DLSw was not intended to transport IP. It gets a little trickier but you can do it. If you try that method, remember to add the following command to one of the routers in the chain: bridge xyz bitswap-layer3-addresses If you don't add that, ARP requests and replies won't function correctly. good luck! John >>> "Lupi, Guy" 12/11/01 7:55:59 AM >>> I have set up RSRB in the lab, and I have verified the configurations several times with various sources. The issue that I am seeing is that when I specify the remote neighbor in the configuration, the state transitions from dead to closed, but never to open. My question is, what causes the connection to go from closed to open, do I have to have traffic such as SNA or netbios to force the neighbors to come up? Is there a way to simulate this traffic if I only have 3 token ring routers? Any help is appreciated. R4#sh run Building configuration...
