On second thought, it might just require a reload after you add the ipx routing 2.2.2 command to force the router to use the manual address after it has picked up an interface mac address.

To reset the router, you must remove all IPX commands, remove the ipx routing command, and reboot the router. The very first command after the reload should be the ipx routing 2.2.2 command, then all will be well. -----Original Message----- From: Mike Martins [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, September 24, 2002 6:07 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: IPX ID [7:53989] I got the IPX network going between all routers, over frame relay etc etc no problem. On the frame-relay map statements (opposite sides) I mapped to the IPX/MAC address that the router had elected. Everything works, no worries. I am not doing anything different, all routers were running default IPX RIP, now disabled and all running IPX EIGRP. I dont know why one router accepts a manual statement and another decides it has got its own agenda. I tried shutting down all interfaces, deleting IPX Routing and re entering a manual x.x.x. It remains stubborn. I will spare you the configs, unless you wanna sift through trunks and tunnels and exiting stuff like DLSW and a few of my improvized ISDN configs. When I started with the IPX early this evening I did not have much config on the routers anyway. It is just a point of interest really, someone must know the answer.
