RE: Ipx routing [7:24091]
And, of course, DECnet changes the MAC address of an Ethernet or Token Ring interface. In fact, one must enable DECnet before IPX or weird things happen to IPX. (It stops working, if I recall.)

Hi All, Thanks for your responses. However, when i do wr t the config shows ipx routing and not ipx routing 2.2.2 Is this an IOS related issue Cheers Richard Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7i=24254t=24091 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: Ipx routing [7:24091]
when you have enabled IPX routing using the ipx routing x.x.x command, the x.x.x MAC will be applied only to serial and loopback ports. that allows you to ipx ping those ports using the network.MAC address. ethernet and fast ethernet ports all have burned in addresses ( bia ) for obvious reason.
