963.0. "wanrouter90 configuration over X.25 (UNIX)" by 23468::SOMENATH () Fri Mar 07 1997 13:16

Hello 
I will require some advice and comments on the following configuration.\
I have tried to put in the maximum info which might help u in understanding
the situation.
The Scenario
============

                 LEASED LINE                   thinwire
-------|---MODEM--------------MODEM-----WR90(1)-------------ALPHA (192.9.200.18)

INFORMATION
===========
DTE address of WR90(1)  40495090
DTE address of WR90(2)  40491020
IP address of alpha     192.9.200.18
IP address of WR90(1)   192.9.200.100
IP address of WR90(2)   196.6.5.1
IP address of VAX(2)    196.6.0.1
IP address of VAX(1)    193.6.0.1
DTE address of VAX(1)   40495010

The alpha is used to download Router image and management file for WR90(1)
using decrou_host_config and vr2_router_config (DECnetosi was temporarily loaded
to do this)

OBJECTIVE
=========
I want to reach VAX(2) from alpha over tcpip 

EXERCISE DONE
=============
WR90(1) has been configured to run IP routing,RIP has been enabled on csmacd 
circuit
The serial port of WR90(1) is configured to run X.25
X.25 dynamic circuit has been defined to route IP data only
The filter for this circuit has been defined with incoming DTE address as
4049*
OSI reachable address is not defined
IP reachable address has been defined to reach over X.25 dynamic circuit
Destination IP address has been given as 196.6.0.1 (that of VAX2)
DTE address of next IP router has been defined as 40491020(that of WR90(2))

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
QUESTION
========
1>>The WR90(2) configuration is not in my hands.
   Have i configured WR90(1) correctly so that it reaches VAX(2) over tcpip.
   Should there be a similar X25 dynamic circuit  on the WR90(2)
   side defined  which should actually point to receive incoming calls
   from alpha.

2>>What is to be done to reach VAX(1) from alpha over tcpip,both on alpha side
   and VAX(1) side.

ASSUMPTIONS
===========
For all templates and filters defined there is no ambiguity in DTE class,
call data value and call data mask.

Actually this connectivity is to be done in minimum time ,hence i want the 
clarifications.


thanks in advance

	Yes, you certainly need  to define a dynamic circuit in both WR90's.
	And not just for incoming calls, since either DA circuit may want to
	initiate the call request if it has data to send.

	Basically the configurations will be symmetrical, apart from the
	appropriate IP and X25 address assignments.

>2>>What is to be done to reach VAX(1) from alpha over tcpip,both on alpha side
   and VAX(1) side.

	I don't know how to configure UCX over PSI. In fact I don't think
	that you can. You might try asking in the HELP::DECNET-OSI_FOR_VMS 
	or LASSIE::UCX notes conferences.

	It's most likely that you would need another WR90 for the VAX1 site.
	Or, if you need native mode PSI at VAX1, then you would have to use	
	a Routeabout90.
