WARNING!!! MULTIPLE ROUTERS WITH SAME INTERNET ADDRESS!
Occurs on: ND286, SFT I, SFT II, TTS.
Meaning: This error message is displayed on the console when the
router process in the file server detects that another
router in the internetwork has the same Internetwork
Number (Network Address) as itself. This is not a fatal
error and will not halt the server.
Cause: At least two networks have been set up with the same
internetwork number. This error will occur if the duplicate
network number is assigned to LAN B, C or D as well as LAN A
in a file server. Each network within the same internetwork
must have a unique network address unless they exist on the
same cabling segment.
This error could also be generated if a break had occurred in a
wiring segment with at least one file server on each side of
the break. If the file servers are both still connected to the
internet, they would both appear to have separate cabling
segments, but both would have routers with the same network
address.
Solution: Use the SCONFIG utility to find and change the duplicate
network addresses. The new network addresses should be
unique from all other networks in the internetwork.
If the two conflicting networks are supposed to be part of the
same large network, then check for a break in the cabling
between the two servers.
