The following figures have been measured on the network:

Set up time : 286 ms

Transit time : 245 ms

Remote Connection Succeeded

If your system has multiple X.25 cards, you may need to specify the particular interface in order for x25check to work properly. For example, to run x25check on the second port of the first card (interface x25_0p2), you would use the following format:

x25check 250207 -i interface0p2

ping command Run the ping command to check your IP over X.25 connection. You can use either an IP address, or the alias for the local node (defined in the hosts file). The following example sends 6 packets of

100 bytes:

ping hpindla 100 -n 6

round-trip (ms) min/avg/max = 318/319/321

You can then check your IP over X.25 connection to a remote host using its IP address or alias.

If ping does not run successfully on the local node address, refer to
