Set X.25 TCP/IP Header Compression

The AI2524 supports RFC 1144 TCP/IP header compression (THC) on serial lines using HDLC and X.25 encapsulation. THC encapsula- tion is different from other encapsulation traffic. The implementation of compressed TCP over X.25 uses one virtual circuit to pass the com- pressed packets. Any IP traffic (including standard TCP) is separate from TCH traffic; it is carried over separate IP encapsulation virtual circuits or identified separately in a multiprotocol virtual circuit.

Note:

If you specify both ip and compressedtcp in the same

 

x25 map compressedtcp command, they must both

 

specify the same IP address.

In interface configuration mode, set up a separate virtual circuit for

X.25 TCP/IP header compression:

x25 map compressedtcp ip-address[protocol2 address2 [...[protocol9 address9 ]]] x121-

address [option]

Configure X.25 Bridging

The AI2524 transparent bridging software supports bridging ove X.25 virtual circuits. Bridging is not supported for RFC 1356 opera- tion. Bridge maps must include the broadcast option for correct oper- ation.

In interface configuration mode, enable the X.25 bridging capability:

x25 map bridge x121-addressbroadcast

[option]
