Brian,
ipx router nlsp area1
area-address 1000 fffff000
means that all the networks in the range
00001000 - 00001FFF are in area1
Another exmple; the area-address pair
12345600 FFFFFF00 describes an area composed of 256
networks in the range 12345600 to 123456FF
IPX configuration guide is very good. Please read.
Good Luck
Mohan.
