Hello all of you,


I have a theoratical and also pratical question. When using the
packet-size negotiation of X.25 what is intended to happen?
Because X.25 is a DTE-DCE protocol (on all levels), is the packet
size negotiation theoreticaly only for the local interface between DTE
and DCE, or is the interface at the remote side also involved (that is what
pratis is telling me).

Furthermore I thought that the network could help in different packet size
at the remote and local side (by using buffers and M-bits it can help
de DTE's in communicating).

So my question is: Is pacjet-size negotiation (the same for window
and throughput) an end-to-end facility in theory and in practice.

Thanks for your help,


All the best,


Victor
