X.25 Networks

X.25 is a standard for wide area network (WAN) packet switching. It establishes mechanisms for routing between users, negotiation of communication features, and error recovery techniques. Public packet-switching services support numerous types of stations from different manufacturers. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to define the interface between the end user's computer and the network.

Levels of X.25

• Physical Level: The recommendation for the X.25 packet level coincides with one of the recommendations of the third level of the OSI model. X.25 encompasses the third level and also the two lowest levels.
• The Link Layer: In X.25, it is assumed that the link layer is LAPB (Link Access Procedure, Balanced). LAPB is responsible for

Pascal Code Examples

1. String Search in Array

This program searches for a given name within an array of strings.

Program Pzim;
var
  vet1: array[1..10] of string;
  nome: string;
  i, j: integer;
begin
  j := 0;
  for i := 1 to 10 do
  begin
    write('Enter the names: ');
    readln(vet1[i]);
  end;
  write('Enter the name to be searched: ');
  readln(nome);
  for i := 1 to 10 do
  begin
    if (nome = vet1[i]) then
    begin
      writeln('FOUND');
      j := j + 1;
    end;
  end;
  if (j = 0) then
    writeln('NOT FOUND');
end.

2. Merging Two Arrays

This program merges two arrays (vet1 and vet2) into a third array (vetx).

Program Pzim;
var
  vet1: array[1..5] of integer;
  vet2: array[1..10] of integer;
  vetx: array[1..15] of integer;
