How do I configure X.25 access for a host on my LAN?
V!CAS
Highlight the entry and enter <Return> to configure the link. For
ethernet links the following settings should be acceptable.
L3 Mode
dce
L3 Packet Size
1024 bytes
L3 Window Size
5
Lowest Two-Way-Channel
1
Highest Two-Way-Channel
4095
Partner MAC address (LLC)
<LAN Partner’s MAC address>
Layer 2 Behaviour
disconnect when idle
An X.25 (LLC) link now exists for our LAN host. You may need to
verify the Packet and Window sizes and the number of Virtual Chan-
nels for this link are compatible with the settings used on the LAN
host.
Edit X.25 Routing Table
Here we create an X.25 route that says: give incoming calls from this
LAN Partner that are addressed to the V!CAS’ X.25 address to the
special local
1
interface.
Source Link
en1<slot>-llc
Destination Link
local
Destination X.25 Address
<V!CAS’ X.25 address>
Edit X.25 Routing Table
Now we’ll create another route so that X.25 calls addressed to our
LAN host find the correct link. This route says: all X.25 calls received
from the local interface that are addressed to our LAN host should be
routed to the host at <MAC address> over the ethernet link.
Source Link
local
Destination Link
en<slot>-llc
Destination Link Address
<LAN Partner’s MAC address>
Destination X.25 Address
<LAN Partner’s X.25 address>
More Info
Depending on how you’ve set up X.25 routing, you can test your X.25
configurations using minipad. See minipad on page 160.

See page 118 for information on the V!CAS’ special local interface.
