&gt; I have a <strong>SITA</strong> X.25 connection and want to send packets to / receive

&gt; this?

Hi,

Yes there is.

Interconnections between X.25 networks are realized over X.75 gateway.
Every X.25 Carrier has a own DNIC (data network id code), 4 digits
dnic and max 11 digits for the rest of x.25 address. With that DNIC
are carriers able to route your SVC over an X.75 Gatway to the right
(hopefuly) destination network.  but you should clarify the folowing
items with your Service Provider Equant (former <strong>SITA</strong>): - whether sita
has a possibility to find the way to sprint or vice versa (depends on
who initiate the request setup for svc switched virtual circuit)
configurations must be done in the routing table (Nortel DPN100
technologie) - has your access point or port by sita the international
permission (configuration could be necessary, parameter: in
international access and out international acces) - it will only
working if you use svc and not pvs - think about the costs (Billing).


All the best,
