Destination Network, Node, Socket
These fields indicate the Destination Network, Node, and Socket extracted from the IPX
packet.
Display RIP Routing Information
The RIP Routing Information Table allows you to view the Routing Information Table network
entries and the network status. It is an extended Visara implementation of Novell’s Display
Networks File Server Utility.
When selecting this test, you have the option of entering either the test number (e.g. 2) or the
test number followed by a comma and a starting destination network number (e.g. 2,11740001).
If only the test number is entered, the panel will begin with the first (lowest numeric value)
destination network in the RIP Routing Information Table. If the test number is entered along
with a destination network, the panel will begin with the first destination network with a
value equal to or greater than the indicated destination network.
Up to five RIP Routing Information Table Network entries will be displayed on each panel.
All Network entries will be ordered based on the Destination Network numeric value.

Destination Network
This field indicates the destination IPX network number.
TICKs
This field indicates an estimate of the amount of time that it takes to transfer a packet to the
destination network. One TICK is equal to 1/18th of a second (18.21 TICKs per second).
HOPs
This field indicates the number of routers that a packet must pass through to reach the destination
network. If this field indicates a value greater than or equal to 16 (decimal), this entry has
either Aged out or the router or LAN board supplying access to this destination network has
broadcast this network as UNAVAILABLE.
