Source Routing and Token Ring Support
There are two ways traffic may communicate in an internetwork mixed with
token ring/IEEE 802.5 and Ethernet/IEEE 802.3 networks. See the "Briding
Service" note earlier in this manual for a detailed discussion of source
routing and support for token ring LANs.
At the bridge layer (also called the MAC layer), source-routing
bridging is used to bridge token-ring-to-token-ring traffic, including
traffic on the other side of source-routing bridges. Source-route
translational bridging is used to bridge Ethernet/IEEE 802.3 and
token ring/IEEE 802.5 LANs.
At the routing layer (also called the network layer), the IP routing
service provides source-route end-node support. Source-route
end-node support allows IP nodes on Ethernet/IEEE 802.3 and token
ring/IEEE 802.5 LANs to communicate with each other. You should
enable source routing when you are configuring the IP routing
services for each of your router's network interfaces.
IP Router Operations
Use the Network Control Language Interpreter (NCL) to display IP events,
access IP statistics, view ARP and IP tables, and test for reachability of IP
nodes. IP and SNMP must be enabled either in router mode or host-only
bridging mode in order to access bridging address tables and routing tables
for any of the routing services.
For detailed information on the router operations available in the Network
Control Language Interpreter, see the reference manual for the HP routers.
