Displays Negotiation Parameters when device name specified and connected:
ipx diag
Tests device connectivity to specified IPX host by sending out a diag packet. If connection is up,
host sends a message in response to this packet to confirm receipt. The parameters for this
command are:
host ipx address
IPX address for the host, in
is a hexadecimal number up to eight digits in length. The node number is the host’s MAC
address. For example, if the assigned network number of “AAAA,” and the host has a MAC
address of 40AA68965439. For this example, you would enter “AAAA:40AA68965439” for the
host IPX address.
timeout
Optional parameter that indicates the number of seconds to wait for a reply. The valid range
for the time out value is 1 to 60 seconds. The default value is 10.
Note:
The ipx diag and the ipx ping commands both test device connectivity (although both
send back different types of responses). However, due to the variety of vendors and
equipment available to networks, one command may work with a particular vendor or
file server, while the other may not. If you are not experiencing success with ipx diag,
try ipx ping, and vice versa.
ipx ping
Tests connectivity to the specified IPX device by sending out a data packet (echo message). If
connection is up, device responds with an echo reply.
host ipx address
IPX address for the host, in
is a hexadecimal number up to eight digits in length. The node number is the host’s MAC
address. For example, if the assigned network number of “AAAA,” and the host has a MAC
address of 40AA68965439. For this example, you would enter “AAAA:40AA68965439” for the
host IPX address.
