Link-to-Link Call Routing

Link-to-link call routing lets users route all SVC calls coming in on one X.25 link to
another X.25 link. By using X.25 link-to-link call routing, it is now possible to create a
default route for all calls from a specified X.25 link. The alias for the default link-to-link
route can route all calls destined for the same link. On previous versions of AI296,
users had to create an alias for each unique called address.

,

NE1

and

place calls to

NE3

,

NE4

, and other elements on the

X.25

network. Aliases route calls from

NE1

and

NE2

to the network elements. A link-to-link

call route exists between links 1 and 2, and between links 3 and 4. An incoming X.25
SVC call from

NE1

that does not match an alias in the table would be routed to

link 2

,

and an incoming X.25 SVC call from

NE2

that does not match an alias in the table

would be routed to to

link 4

.

Important: The link-to-link call alias must be at the end of the alias list. If the

link-to-link alias is above an actual destination alias, an X.25 SVC call
will be processed by the default link-to-link alias.
