IPX Ping

When you issue an Internet Packet Exchange Protocol (IPX) ping, the router sends

an IPX configuration request packet to the remote IPX address that you specify. If

the remote device is listening on socket number 456h for an IPX configuration

request packet, the device responds if it can be reached, and Site Manager displays

the response or the result of the request.

IPX configuration request packets are typically used to get configuration

information from other devices on a NetWare network. However, the router only

uses these packets to test the reachability of a remote device that listens for and

responds to IPX configuration request packets.

The IPX router will not send or acknowledge IPX configuration request packets

addressed to

• Network 0x00000000 (local network destination) or network 0xFFFFFFFF

• Host 0x000000000000 or host 0xFFFFFFFFFFFF (broadcast host

destination)

The IPX router will only respond to request packets sent directly to one of its

interface addresses. If you send a request packet from a router to an IPX interface

on that same router, the router does not send the request packet out onto the line.

Instead, the router sends the packet internally to the specified interface, which

then responds internally.

Note:

The IPX router will respond (reply with a ping response) to any ping

packet that comes in on socket number 9086 and that has a type field of 0.
