Configuring the PathBuilder S200 Series Switch for Bridging Operation

Encapsulation Type

Range:

RFC 877, RFC 1294

Default:

CODEX

Description:

Specify the type of encapsulation used over this LAN connection.
Encapsulation types supported include:

• CODEX: Codex Proprietary Encapsulation

• RFC 877/1356: RFC 877/1356 X.25 protocol encapsulation

for IP

• RFC 1294/1490: RFC 1294/1490 multiprotocol encapsulation

over Frame Relay

Boot Type:

Changes to this parameter require a Table and Node Record boot
to take effect.

Autocall Mnemonic

Range:

0 to 8 alphanumeric characters

Default:

0 (blank)

Description:

Specify the mnemonic name used when the LAN connection is
configured to autocalling. A corresponding entry must be made in
the Mnemonic Table. A blank entry means autocalling will not be
initiated by this LAN connection entry. The LAN connector at the
remote device must initiate the call. If configured, the Autocall
Mnemonic references a remote address which will be called by the
LAN connection.

Specifically, it must equal the node address of the node to which
the remote LAN is attached (the LAN to which we want to
bridge). The LAN connection subaddress configured in the node
record is appended to this address to form the complete called
address of an X.25 call.

LCON Queue Limit

Range:

0 to 65536

Default:

16000

Description:

The LCON Queue Limit parameter specifies the maximum
number of bytes that are queued for this LAN before transmission
on the WAN link. Set this parameter for two seconds of data on the
WAN link.
