Configuring tip

To configure tip, add the name of the remote node you want to reach to your /etc/remote file. The entry must include the device type and also specify the pad command needed to reach the remote device. If the remote destination is in the hosts database, you can give the hostname you entered there. The entry looks like this:

hostname:\
          :dv=/dev/xtydevice:cm=CALL x25.address:

Use the xty device you set using x25tool.

Enter the X.25 address in one of the following formats:

• link number.x121 address (for example 0.23433140831)

• link number.MAC address (for example 1.1234567890AB7E)
