Cabletron Systems CSX1200, CSX1000 manual Appletalk Routing Operational Over the WAN Connection

PROBLEM DIAGNOSIS

AppleTalk Routing

If the AppleTalk address for the router is not same as the one displayed when issuing atalk port console command, then the Local Mac is getting the information from another router. Please refer to the document for the router.

If the AppleTalk address for Router is the same as the one displayed after issuing the atalk port console command, contact your Distributor or Customer Support.

Problem:

Only local zones appear and remote zones are not shown in the Mac’s Chooser:

Action:

1.Verify that a static route to the remote network is properly configured on the CyberSWITCH. The static route is configured using CFGEDIT.

2.If the static route is not configured correctly, make the appropriate corrections.

3.If the static route is properly configured, then contact your Distributor or Customer Support.

APPLETALK ROUTING OPERATIONAL OVER THE WAN CONNECTION

Problem:

The local Mac is unable to see the remote resource (Remote Mac), which is located across the WAN.

Action:

1.Verify that AppleTalk Routing is operational on both the local and the remote LAN.

2.Verify that the remote resources (remote Mac) can be seen when the WAN connection is up.

3.If the remote resources can be seen when the connection is up but not when the connection is down, there are some problems with making outbound calls. Make sure that the information on the remote CyberSWITCH (labeled Site 2 in the example network) contains a proper AppleTalk address, and that Make calls for AppleTalk data for the device is enabled.
