Ip address is hierarchical address,
Then ipx address is hierarchical address too , isn¡¯t it ?

I would say the answer is Yes. IPX adresses can be used to build a network that corresponds to an IP hierarchy. However, IPX is not capable of subnetting like IP. You will need to asign a unique network ID to each segment or link.

sure,I found this answer from Cisco's ipx configuration.
when config static ipx route, with this ios command
" ipx route ff000000 ff000000 2.0001.0001.0001"
This prove ipx address is hierarchical.
Igijssel,thank you very much!

No,
IPX addresses are not hierarchical.
They have fixed-length network and host parts, no subnet masks.
You can create some "hierarchy" using NLSP route aggregation, e.g., (see http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios122/122cgcr/fatipx_c/2cfipx.htm#1001586) but it's not a part of IPX itself.
