NAME

x25call − establish IP connection via X.25 virtual circuit

SYNOPSIS

x25call [ −t timeout3s ] x25_addr [ sub_addr ]

DESCRIPTION

x25call establishes IP connection via an X.25 packet switched network. 

x25call waits up to timeout seconds for the ISDN call to complete or fail.  Default value is 30 seconds.  If timeout is 0, x25call returns immediately. 

The IP address and DTE address must be configured using isdnset(8). 

If successfull, x25call prints the assigned channel ID and returns this value as exit status.  Otherwise it prints a diagnostics message on error output and returns exit status −1.
