Infolan is exclusively X.25 based - right ?
Or is this just here in Europe ?
No, wrong in both cases. Infolan uses a mix of ITT-COMTEN equipmnet
for X.25 and SDLC services, as well as dial up aync, at least this was
true a couple of years ago. Now they have also introduced cisco based
Internet IP private virtual networks on top of it.
I am not sure if they run the IP stuff over X.25 or if they run a TDM
type bandwidth muxing layer below. Maybe someone here could inform of this?
