Syntax Checks

This appendix describes the syntax checks that are performed on configuration files by the Cisco IP Manager software.

Syntax errors are reported in the Syntax Errors report.

To view this report, open the Baseline Summary report and double-click on the Syntax Errors row of the Results grid (or select it and click the Show Report button).

Following is a list and brief description (where needed) of the syntax checks performed by the Cisco IP Manager software. The checks are divided into AppleTalk, Frame Relay, IP, Novell/IPX, SRB, SNA, DLSW, and general categories.

AppleTalk

• AppleTalk address must be <network>.<node> where <network> is in the range 0 through 65279 and <node> is in the range 0 through 254.
