HP X.25 for OpenVMS operating system enables appropriately configured
systems to connect to an X.25 Packet Switched
Data Network (PSDN) via an X.25 Relay node on the
same Local Area Network (LAN), via a DNA Phase IV
X.25 connector node, or directly using a synchronous
controller card for AlphaServer systems.
This product supports communication via PSDNs conforming
to ITU/TSS recommendation X.25 1980, 1984,
and 1988, or to international standard ISO 8208. Please refer
to the SUPPORTED PUBLIC NETWORKS section for
the list of supported PSDNs.
HP X.25 v2.0 supports OpenVMS operating system
for AlphaServer system version 8.2 and Integrity server version 8.2 and 8.2-1.
X.25 v2.0 for OpenVMS AlphaServer system contains synchronous
device drivers and is required when using synchronous
communications options.
Note:HP X.25 for Integrity server does not support synchronous
device drivers and synchronous communications
options.
HP X.25 for OpenVMS operating system also provides the device drivers
and specific data link protocol support for HP's synchronous
communications options for AlphaServer systems.
HP X.25 for OpenVMS operating system allows the system to:
- Connect to other X.25 implementations using RFC
1613 (also known as XOT) via a TCP/IP wide area
network
- Act as a Gateway Access Protocol (GAP) server for
Phase V GAP clients
- Act as an X.25 Connector system for DECnet-Plus
X.25 Access systems
- Act as a packet-mode DTE connected to a supported
PSDN
- Support ISO 8208 DTE to DTE point-to-point operation
- Act as a packet-mode DTE connected to a LAN
- Act as an X.25 relay node conforming to ISO Technical
Report 10029
- Provide an X.25 sub-network for DECnet-Plus
CONS and CLNS operation
- Provide a DEC-HDLC point-to-point data link for
DECnet-Plus CLNS operation
- Act as a combination of the above, chosen on a per-
DTE basis
