I´m using a cisco router to do protocol translation between X.25 and TCP. The X.25 terminal connect to a X.25 router and the same router opens a telnet session to my TCP/IP host and the translation occurs transparently. It work´s fine in many cases, but I have here some dumb equipament that usually connect directly to a X.25 host and start communicating. It does not wait the router to open the telnet session on TCP/IP hosts. The result is that the begining of the communication is lost and then all connection is lost. The question is: Is there any manner to do router delay the X.25 connection until the telnet session to open? Thank´s in advance. I´m sorry about my poor english. -- Paulo Roque Network Engineer _________________________________ FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
