Configuring X.25 PAD
Placing an X.25 PAD call to log in to a remote device
If two routers on an X.25 network support X.25 PAD, use the pad command to place an X.25 PAD call on one router (the client) to log in to the other router (the server). If authentication is configured, the server will authenticate the client before allowing it to log in.
After logging onto the server, you can access the configuration interface of the server and then configure the server.
You can nest a pad command within another pad command or a telnet command. By nesting commands, you can do the following on your router:
Place an X.25 PAD call to log in to another router; and from that router, place another X.25 PAD call to log in to a third router, and so on.
Telnet to another router; and from that router, place an X.25 call to log in to a third router, and so on.
Place an X.25 PAD call to log in to another router; and from that router, Telnet to a third router, and so on.
To ensure transmission, limit nesting operations within three levels.
Logout operations are done in the reverse direction. You can execute the quit command multiple times to log out of the logged-in router and all of the in-between routers one by one.
Setting the delay waiting for the response to an Invite Clear message
The server end of X.25 PAD might send an Invite Clear message to the client, for example, after receiving an exit request from client or in order to release the link. At the same time, a timer is started. If no response is received on expiration of the timer, the server will clear the link.
