The General X.25 screen (#159) in Figure 7-5 “General X.25 Protocol Screen” is displayed when you press the [Go To X25] function key at the Protocol Configuration screen (Figure 7-4 “Protocol Configuration Screen”). It is also displayed when you type the path name:

in the Command window of any screen and press the [Enter] key, where NIname is a configured X.25 NI.

Use the fields and the function keys of the select screen to perform the desired action. Press the [Save Data] function key to transfer the data displayed on the screen to the configuration file you are creating or updating. Verify that the data record has been created by checking that the Data flag is set to Y.

Fields

Inactivity timer for IP connections (in seconds)

(Required.) Enter a number of seconds after which any inactive switched virtual circuits (SVC) being used for TCP/IP connections are automatically disconnected. If no inactivity timer is to be set, enter a 0 in this field.

It is best to set this timer at more than two times the value of the TCP connection assurance timer. This keeps the X.25 virtual circuit for a remote session active, even when no user data is being transferred.

Default value: 1210

Range: 0, 30-32767
