Very interesting. I wonder why someone would tweak those values on the server in the first place. Unless all the devices on a LAN segment are using the same values, problems are going to arise. From the sounds of it, someone changed the server settings and didn't bother to let everyone else know!
John >>> "Fraasch James" 2/5/02 2:49:28 PM >>> Yup, I made the changes on the TokenRing interface itself, not the WAN interface. The original config I posted listed just one of the routers that was connected via a serial interface (all T1 lines). There are actually 7 serial connections to this and five token rings. Each interface is its own separate network. I think the problem is like this: The Cisco router is looking for RIP and SAP updates every one or three minutes by default. If your server is configured to send out RIP and SAP updates at any interval greater than what Cisco is looking for, then Cisco forgets the route to the server. By matching the Cisco RIP and SAP update interval to whatever is set on the server on the network, there should never be an interval greater than what is allowed to keep the route. As to whether or not this command should be placed on the WAN interfaces or the LAN interface, well, it was already set on all the WAN interfaces so it looks like it has to be set on each interface where a SNA server is located. The only interface that did not have the command was one that went to another network that was all NT, no IPX at all.
