Not necessarily true. This does not show everything you need. If you are
connected to a switch I do not believe it will give you the IPX network info
of the neighboring router. Even if it does, it is possible to turn it off on
the router so you cannot get the info. ......

The way described previously with the sub ints and encapsulations will
definetly work. I do not think Cisco will make it as easy as show cdp
neighbor even if it will show you the IPX network.
