Conﬁguring XTP

XTP is a protocol forwarder used to transport X.25 traffic over TCP/IP. XTP allows

existing X.25 devices to communicate over a TCP/IP backbone and migrate from an

X.25 network to a network of your choice.

Conﬁguration Procedures

This section deﬁnes the detail for conﬁguring the network displayed in Figure 20.

This conﬁguration shows three routers, the Concentrator router, Remote 1 router,

and Remote 2 router. To make XTP operational on this network, perform the

following steps for each of these routers:

v Set the data link

v Conﬁgure the IP interface

v Conﬁgure X.25

v Set the National Personality values

v Deﬁne the IP address
