Configuring X.25 IP connections
This section describes how to configure the MAX to exchange IP datagrams over the X.25
network connection specified in an X.25 profile. X.25 IP connections must be routed. They
cannot be bridged.
You must first set Ethernet > Answer > Encaps...> X25/IP=Yes, and Ethernet > Connection >
Connection profile > Encaps=X25/IP. The Encaps parameter specifies the encapsulation
method to use when exchanging data with a remote network. Both sides of the link must use
the same encapsulation for the connection to be established.
Then you can configure the related parameters located in Ethernet > Connection > Connection
profile > Encaps Options. These parameters define a X.25 profile name, a logical channel
number, an encapsulation type for calling the remote site, whether the call packet should have
a reverse charge element, and a network id:
Parameter Specifies
X.25 Prof A 15-character text field containing the name of an X.25 profile that
the MAX uses for the logical connection. If the specified X.25 profile
cannot be found, the MAX does not start a session for this Connection
profile. As a safeguard against such misconfiguration, an active
Connection profile specifying X.25 encapsulation cannot be saved
unless you define the named X.25 profile and make it active.
LCN The logical channel number (LCN) to use in the case of a Permanent
Virtual Circuit (PVC). The default of 0 (zero) specifies that the MAX
does not provide a logical channel number, so the connection is not a
PVC.
Encaps Type Which encapsulation to use when calling the remote site. When
receiving a call, the MAX accepts any of the three types of
encapsulation. The default is RFC 877.
Reverse Charge Whether or not the call packet should include an X.25 reverse charge
request facility element. The default is No.
RPOA The set of Recognized Private Operating Agency (RPOA) user
facilities to use in the next call request. The RPOA facilities provide
the data network identification code for the requested initial RPOA
transit network. You can specify up to four digits. The default is null.
CUG Index The Closed User Group (CUG) index facility to use in the next call
request. The CUG index facility specifies, for the called switch, the
closed user group selected for a virtual call. You can specify up to two
digits. The default is null.
NUI A name/password combination that gives you access to a commercial
packet-switched network. The set of Network User Identification
(NUI) related facilities to use in the next call request. NUI provides
information to the network for billing, security, network management
purposes, and activation of subscribed facilities. You can specify the
NUI, consisting of up to six digits, to use in the next call request. The
default is null.
