Editing LAPB Parameters
The Link Access Procedure Balanced (LAPB) protocol is a subset of the
High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) protocol, which is an OSI link layer
standard. This chapter describes
Properties of the LAPB protocol
Editing LAPB parameters
Properties of the LAPB Protocol
The implementation of the LAPB protocol differs among Bay Networks routers.
On the AN, ANH, ARN, and ASN routers, and BN and LN
routers with the Octal
Sync link module, LAPB is implemented in software. For all other link modules,
LAPB is implemented in the hardware, and you cannot configure LAPB line
parameters.
Bay Networks routers use the services of LAPB to initialize the link between the
router and the local DCE device, and to frame X.25 data packets before
transmitting them to the DCE. X.25 uses the LAPB protocol at the data link
layer to
Initialize the link between the DTE and the local DCE device
Frame X.25 data packets before transmitting them to the DCE
The LAPB information field contains the X.25 packets. When an X.25 packet
reaches the destination router, the LAPB protocol strips away the LAPB frame
and delivers the packet to the network layer for further processing.
