11-6 CHAPTER 11: ADMINISTERING IPX ROUTING
Displaying the
Routing Table
You can display the routing tables for the system to determine which
routes are configured and if they are operational.
To display the contents of the routing table, from the Administration
Console top-level menu, enter:
ipx route display
The example displays the configuration of IPX forwarding, RIP, and SAP,
as well as the routing table.
Defining a Static
Route
Before you define static routes on the system, you must define at least
one IPX interface. See the section “Defining an IPX Interface” on
page 11-3. Static routes remain in the table until you remove them or
until you remove the corresponding interface. Static routes take
precedence over dynamically learned routes to the same destination.
You can set up to 16 static routes.
To define a static route:
1 From the Administration Console top-level menu, enter:
ipx route static
2 Enter the 4-byte IPX network address of the route.
3 Enter the cost of the route.
4 Enter the interface number of the route.
