IBM SC30-3681-08 Saw User Manual


 
This switch is completely independent of whether this interface is providing source
routing via the SRT forwarder. The default setting is enabled.
Some stations cannot properly receive frames with a Source Routing RIF on them.
This is especially common among NetWare drivers. Disabling source routing in this
situation will allow you to communicate with these stations.
Source routing should be enabled only if there are source-routing bridges on this
ring that you want to bridge IP, IPX, and AppleTalk Phase 2 packets through.
Source routing must also be enabled so LLC test response messages can be
returned.
Syntax:
source-routing
enable
disable

Accessing the Interface Monitoring Process
To display the Token-Ring monitoring prompt (TKR>), enter the network command
followed by the interface number of the Token-Ring interface. For example:
+network 0
TKR>
Use the list devices command at the Config> prompt to display a list of interface
numbers configured on the router.
Follow the procedure described in “Accessing the Network Interface Configuration
Process” on page 15 to access the interface monitoring process for the interface
