NetWare NetworksNetWare Networks
In the early 1980’s, Novell developed a network operating system (NOS)(NOS) that grew to dominate the market: NetWare.
– Based on work done by Xerox (XNS)
– Client/Server
– Multi-platform support (Mac, PC, UNIX)
– Proprietary Protocol Stack: IPX/SPX
– NetWare servers act as routers

Major NetWare VersionsMajor NetWare Versions
– NetWare 2.x
– NetWare 3.12
– NetWare 4.11 (dubbed IntraNetWare)
– NetWare 5 (current release)
In the last 15 years, NetWare has seen major changes in Ethertype, directory services, and layer 3 protocols.

Decline of NovellDecline of Novell
With the rapid emergence of another NOS, Microsoft NTMicrosoft NT, and the TCP/IP-driven Internet:
– Novell no longer leads the NOS market
– NetWare 5.0 is IP-based
– Novell’s Directory Services (NDS) remains viable

Legacy NetworksLegacy Networks
There is an enormous installed base of NetWare networks. These legacy networks require support for:
– IPX/SPX– Multiple Ethernet Frame Types– Proprietary Novell routing protocols and
service advertisements.

Cisco Systems continues to support legacy NetWare networks with a rich feature-set that can be added to any release of its IOS.

• 1980 - Xerox, Intel and DEC release Ethernet Version I (no longer used)
• 1982 - Xerox, Intel and DEC release Ethernet Version II, aka – Ethernet v2– Ethernet II– DIX Ethernet

• 1982+ - Ethernet II becomes the de facto standard for framing TCP/IP.– TCP/IP is the Internet’s protocol.
– The Internet evolved from the DoD’s ARPANET. (Remember: TCP/IP -> Internet-> ARPA)

• 1982 - IEEE’s 802 committee begins working on their own Ethernet standard, 802.3

The plot thickens...
• 1983 - Upstart Novell, newly incorporated, can’t wait for IEEE and releases a frame format based on the preliminary 802.3 specification.

Novell’s frame format has no field for indicating what Layer 3 protocol should get the packet.
After all, IPX is the only Layer 3 protocol worth running, right?

1985 - IEEE releases the 802.3 spec with the LLC fields (which use Service Access Points to point to layer 3 protocols), making Novell’s format incompatible.

• Finally, Ethernet 802.3 SNAP was created because of compatibility issues between Ethernet II and 802.3.

Note: The default Ethernet encapsulation type on Cisco routers does not match the default Ethernet encapsulation type on Novell servers after NetWare 3.11.

Important!Important!
• Every frame type in use on your network must have it’s own logical network.logical network.
• Ethernet 802.3 and Ethernet II can live together on the same wire, but an 802.3 station can’t “talk” to a node that only uses Ethernet II.
CHABOT COLLEGE CISCO NETWORKING ACADEMYCHABOT COLLEGE CISCO NETWORKING ACADEMY
Multiple Frame TypesMultiple Frame Types
If two frame types are in use on the same segment that a Cisco router lives on, that router’s interface will need two logical (network) addresses, one for each frame type.
How can e0 have two addresses?

• Actually, one Cisco router interface can have over 4 billion logical addresses.
• This is done using the subinterface command.
CHABOT COLLEGE CISCO NETWORKING ACADEMYCHABOT COLLEGE CISCO NETWORKING ACADEMY
SubinterfacesSubinterfaces
In global configuration mode, invoke the serial interface using a decimal point followed by the subinterface you wish to create.
Router(config)#int s0.1
Router(config-subif)#
CHABOT COLLEGE CISCO NETWORKING ACADEMYCHABOT COLLEGE CISCO NETWORKING ACADEMY
SubinterfacesSubinterfaces
By using subinterfaces you put one physical interface on multiple logical networks:
e0.1 ip address 169.199.69.190 255.255.255.192
e0.2 ip address 169.199.69.254 255.255.255.192
e0.3 ip address 10.0.0.1 255.0.0.0
CHABOT COLLEGE CISCO NETWORKING ACADEMYCHABOT COLLEGE CISCO NETWORKING ACADEMY

This allows a single interface to have multiple IPX addresses (and thus encapsulation types)

IPX address is 4F.0000.0c04.8c8b, SAP [up] line-up
Ethernet0.2 is up, line protocol is up

Novell Uses RIP for RoutingNovell Uses RIP for Routing
• Novell RIP is different than IP RIP.
CHABOT COLLEGE CISCO NETWORKING ACADEMYCHABOT COLLEGE CISCO NETWORKING ACADEMY
IP RIP vs. Novell RIPIP RIP vs. Novell RIP
Novell RIP:
– has more than one metric (hop count & ticks)– can equal-cost load balance over multiple paths– sends updates every 60 seconds by default, not 30

Novell SAPNovell SAP
All servers and routers keep a complete list of the services available throughout the network in server information tables.
CHABOT COLLEGE CISCO NETWORKING ACADEMYCHABOT COLLEGE CISCO NETWORKING ACADEMY
Novell SAPNovell SAP
• SAP updates– are broadcast– are sent by file servers, print servers, etc.– occur every 60 seconds (default)– are NOT forwarded by routers
To prevent excessive traffic across WAN links, routers build comprehensive SAP tables and send those instead of forward individual updates.

If there are no NetWare servers on the local network, the Cisco
router will respond with a server address from its own SAP table.
