IPX Routing Tables

Port#

Displays the interface index of the port on your ATX through which the next hop of the route should be reached.

Hop Count

Displays the secondary routing metric for this route, which is the number of routers that must be traversed to reach the destination.

Next Hop

Displays the IPX node address of the next hop of this route, if indirect. If direct this ﬁeld displays the address of the local interface.

Age

Displays the number of seconds since the route was last updated.

Tick Count

Displays the primary routing metric of this route, which is an estimate of the amount of ticks (55 millisecond intervals) that are needed to reach the destination address.

IPX SAP

SAP (Service Advertising Protocol) provides a method for IPX servers to advertise the services they provide. It functions similarly to RIP, but it is the servers that send out broadcasts advertising the services they provide. IPX routers gather the information, maintain a database of services they know about, and broadcast that information to other routers. Clients can then ﬁnd the servers that provide the services they need. This table displays an entry for each SAP-cache service presently known to this router. Each entry is an IPX service deﬁnition, as advertised by the SAP protocol and distributed through the SAP cache of this router.

Index

The SAP index number is not related to the interface number assigned to each port. This index is just a number assigned to the SAP entry itself.

Type

Identiﬁes the type of service provided by the server. Values range from 0 to ffff and they are deﬁned by Novell.

Name

The name assigned to the server.

Network

Displays the IPX network address of the server providing the indicated service (as deﬁned in the Type ﬁeld).
