1. Verify that the cursor is in the X.25 link name ﬁeld. Enter the

link name that will be used for X.25 iX System Access (X.25

system-to-system connections) for this DTC/X.25 Network Access

card. This link name must be the same as the link name

conﬁgured on the X.25 Conﬁguration screen during NS

conﬁguration (see Chapter 6, “Conﬁguring X.25 Links

Step-by-Step.”)

2. Move the cursor to the Maximum number of Switched Virtual

Circuit ﬁeld. Enter the maximum number of SVC connections that

will be supported for this card.

3. Move the cursor to the System X.25 address ﬁeld. Enter the

same X.25 address as entered in the X.25 card address ﬁeld on the

Level 3 and Miscellaneous screen unless your network application

requires the address used for X.25 system-to-system communications

to be different from that used for PAD communications. If the

addresses must be different, enter the X.25 address that the local

system will use for system-to-system connections in this ﬁeld.

Note that with certain networks (such as Transpac, in France) the

called address is removed from incoming call packets and the calling

address is added to outgoing call packets by the network. For these

networks, enter only the subaddress in this ﬁeld, not the full X.25

address.
