IP Over X.25 Networks
Figure 1-6 illustrates a common IP over X.25 application.
Figure 1-6 IP Over X.25 Network
In Figure 1-6
, AI296 is used to tunnel IP traffic through an X.25 network. AI296 can be
configured to encapsulate IP packets, making it possible to achieve IP connectivity
across a legacy X.25 network. The most common application for this functionality is to
transport SNMP management information across an X.25 network.
Important: IP/X.25 transport works only over SVCs.
