Preparing to Upgrade
1-11
Verifying X.25 Certifiability
If the router you want to upgrade does not currently support any X.25
configurations, go to “Reviewing Interoperability Issues.”
If you need to upgrade a Version 5 router supporting X.25 to a Version 10.0 router
supporting X.25, read this section.
Due to possible differences between older and newer link modules supporting
connections to your X.25 network, you must verify that a Version 5 router you
want to upgrade to Version 10.0 can meet X.25 certification requirements. If you
have not done so before receiving this upgrade kit, you may need to replace some
link modules so that the router passes X.25 certification.
Refer to Appendix B for information on the hardware you need to ensure that the
routers you are upgrading meet X.25 certification requirements upon completion
of the upgrade.
Reviewing Interoperability Issues
Before you upgrade from Version 5 to Version 10.0, review the following
interoperability issues between Version 5 and Version 10.0 routers:
• Point-to-point connections over a synchronous line
• PPP software
• AppleTalk OUI values for routing over SMDS or Frame Relay
Refer to Appendix B for more detailed information about these issues, then go to
Chapter 2 or 3 to begin the router upgrade process.
Note: You do not need to remove features unsupported in Version 10.0 from a
Version 5 configuration file.
