USER’S GUIDE

TRIGGERED RIP/SAP START UP

Problem:

The CyberSWITCH does not display a triggered RIP/SAP starting message for a WAN peer.

Action:

Verify that the WAN peer is properly configured. Issue the device command in Manage Mode to display the current Device List. Or, you may view the WAN peer list through CFGEDIT, Options, IPX Configuration, Triggered RIP/SAP. Be sure that the device (WAN peer) has IPX routing enabled and triggered RIP/SAP (active) selected as routing protocol.

TRIGGERED RIP/SAP OPERATION

Problem:

Routes or Services are not propagated between peers.

Changes are not propagated between peers.

Action:

1.Verify triggered RIP/SAP has successfully started for peers. Issue the dr console command and look for the “starting” message in the log.

2.Generate a triggered RIP/SAP update request to the devices in question. Issue the following console command for each device:

ipx trigreq <device>

3.Verify that the statistics are incremented properly. Issue the following console commands: ipx trigrip stats

ipx trigsap stats

4.If routes/services are not propagated on either side, contact Customer Support.
