X.75 internetworking of Datapac and Telenet

Abstract

In 1980, agreement was reached by CCITT defining a standard for the interconnection of public data networks. As a result, networks have been able to proceed with the establishment of international services using CCITT Recommendation X.75. This paper discusses the methodology used and the operating experience gained by the introduction of an X.75 interface between the GTE Telenet and Datapac public packet switching networks.
