Net2Net circuit mode
With traditional X.25 connections, you configure one X.25 switched connection per client, as
in Figure 6-3.
Figure6-3. Traditional X.25 connection
But a MAX 6000 unit can enable several X.25 clients to share a single connection to an X.25
network. In Figure 6-4, the X.25 switch connects to the MAX 6000. The X.25 switch sees the
MAX 6000 as a terminating device—Data Terminal Equipment (DTE). The clients see the
MAX 6000 as an X.25 switch—Data Communications Equipment (DCE).

X.25 menu, that is, to the name of the X.25 profile to be used for this client.
6Set the Appl Mode parameter to Net2Net.
7Exit the profile and, at the exit prompt, select the exit and accept option.
