3751.0. "DSW21 problem with X.21" by UTRTSC::VWEE () Thu May 29 1997 10:47

Hello,
I customer got the following problem with a "type X.21" interface.
The system is a VAX 4000 model 60, with a DSW21 sync. interface.
They want to use this interface for x25, (physical type X.21)

They are using DECnet osi V6.3 eco 5.

They configured native X25 on this interface. It seems that the cable isn't
recognized (BC19c).

Is this supported, X.21 and DSW21?
Can someone answer this question?
