Introduction
This section describes X.25/9000 PAD (Packet Assembler/Disassembler)
Services which enable HP 9000 computers to connect and communicate
with remote systems over a Packet Switching Network (PSN).
NOTE Refer to “Configuring PAD Services” in Chapter 3 for information on
configuring PAD Services with SMH.
PAD Services include the following commands and functions:
• x29server – for PAD support for remote terminals:
A daemon process that allows a local HP 9000 system to function as
a host for (real or emulated) terminals attached to a remote PAD.
• x29printd – for remote PAD printer support:
A daemon process that allows local HP 9000 computers to print at
printers attached to a remote PAD.
• x29uucpd – for PAD-UUCP connectivity:
A daemon process that allows HP 9000 computers to originate
UNIX-to-UNIX copy services over an X.25 Switched Virtual Circuit
(SVC).
• padem – for local PAD emulation:
A user command that allows a local HP 9000 system to emulate both
a terminal and a PAD for connection with remote systems over a
PSN.
CCITT Recommendations
X.25/9000 PAD Services are compliant with the X.25, X.28, X.29, and X.3
CCITT Recommendations of 1984.
Recommendation X.28 defines the exchange of messages between PAD
terminals and the PAD. A superset of the commands defined by this
protocol are performed by padem.
