X.25 Overview
117377-A Rev. A 1-15
X.25 PLP Interface
The X.25 PLP interface corresponds to OSI layer 3. On an X.25 PLP interface,
you can create and configure multiple VCs.
On an X.25 interface, you can configure IPEX service and another type of X.25
service: PDN, Point-to-Point, or QLLC. IPEX uses the X.25 flow-control
mechanisms to detect any congestion in the X.25 connection.
IPEX uses the X.25 PLP client interface to
Open and close X.25 connections
Send data to the X.25 module for transmission
Process received data delivered from the X.25 module
Control the flow of data across the client interface
Ensure data integrity
TCP Interface
IPEX appears to TCP as a client. As such, IPEX specifies the socket for the local
TCP interface (consisting of its IP address and TCP port number) and another
socket for the remote TCP interface to establish a connection.
For VCs using IPEX, when the local X.25 DCE or DTE requests an X.25
end-to-end switched connection, the local router contacts the remote IPEX router
to establish a unique TCP connection for that X.25 connection.
Because a large number of TCP connections may be active concurrently to
support many tunneling sessions, IPEX service uses a large range of TCP port
numbers to create separate sockets for the individual tunneling sessions. However,
IPEX service does not use any port numbers that are reserved for the standard
TCP/IP protocols, UNIX system services, or other TCP client services provided in
the software. The port numbers reserved for IPEX service range from 12,304
through 16,399.
IPEX uses the TCP client interface to
Open, close, and check the status of TCP connections
Send data to the TCP module for transmission
Process received data delivered from the TCP module
Control the flow of data across the client interface
Ensure data integrity across the IP network
