Routing Information Protocol (RIP)

Routing protocols such as RIPv1 and RIPv2 can be enabled on a VLAN. For example, to enable RIPv2 on the admin VLAN, use the command:

ADD IP RIP INTERFACE=vlan11 SEND=RIP2 RECEIVE=BOTH

To display information about RIP (Figure 23 on page 103), use the command:

SHOW IP RIP

Novell IPX

The switch’s implementation of the Novell IPX protocol uses the term circuit to refer to a logical connection over an interface, similar to an X.25 permanent virtual circuit (PVC) or a Frame Relay Data Link Connection (DLC). The term interface is used to refer to the underlying physical interface, such as VLAN, Ethernet, Point-to-Point (PPP) and Frame Relay.

To create IPX circuit 1 with the Novell network number 129 over the admin

VLAN, use the command:

ADD IPX CIRC=1 INTERFACE=vlan11 NETWORK=129 ENCAP=802.3

To display information about the circuits configured for IPX (Figure 24), use the command:

SHOW IPX CIRCUIT
