Setting the National Personality
Each public data network, such as GTE’s Telenet or DDN’s Defense Data Network,
has its own standard configuration. The term
National Personality
specifies a group
of variables used to define a public data network’s characteristics. The configuration
information in the National Personality provides the router with control information
for packets being transferred over the link. The National Personality option defines
27 default parameters for each public data network.
To view the configuration values that are in your X.25 National Personality, execute
the X.25 configuration list detailed command. Configure each public data network
connected to the router by executing the X.25 configuration national-personality
set command.
The National Personality is a generalized template for network configuration. If
necessary, you can individually configure each frame and packet layer parameter.
