Hello again:

Yes, I am plan to tunnel IP via X.25. As your info, our server will connect into cisco router and the cisco router will connect into X.25 protocol to communicate with the swicthes. So, I plan to develop a perl program to collect files from the swicthes to our server via the connection.

If you are tunneling IP over X.25 as you answered above, your switches will have to have IP addresses. FTP is part of the TCP/IP stack and should be available for copying your files. I think you need to discuss these transport issues with your network engineer or Cisco rep. Or google "Cisco 9362" for a document that describes TCP/IP over X.25. It contains a nice diagram of what I think you are wanting to do.

What type of switch are you wanting to connect to? There could be more specific information on that topic on the Cisco site.

There's never enough time to do it right, but always enough time to do it over...

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
