PPP (Point to Point Protocol)

X.25

X.25/HDLC Decodes

The Advisor WAN provides real-time decoding capability for all three layers of

the X.25 protocol according to ITU-T X.25-1988. The following fields are

decoded and displayed:

• LAPB address, frame type, P/F, N(s), N(r), and FCS

• X.25 GFI, LCN, packet type, P(s), and P(r)

• called and calling addresses

• facility fields

• diagnostic, reset, and restart cause codes and explanations

X.25 LCN Statistics

Displays first 32 LCNs (all data stored to capture buffer).

Display for each individual LCN:

• Graph of instantaneous throughput

• Number of frames in pie chart graphic.

• Packet length distribution as a percent and total count.

X.25 Test Scripts

• DCE and DTE network cell

• DCE and DTE subscriber call

• Traffic generation

• X.25 Call Placement Scripts

- Mode:

* Simulate DTE or DCE

- Select:

* Network call or subscriber call
