X400: What to Order with the X.25 Card (86966)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Mail Gateway to X.400 3.0
This article was previously published under Q86966
One of the necessary requirements for the X.25 transport for the Microsoft Mail Gateway to X.400 is the acquisition of the X.25 card. The card comes set up for either XT-style personal computers or PS/2 computers with the micro channel architecture.

Access Software

The access software is a terminal emulation package that allows for different methods of submitting files to the Eicon card. This software is generally used by PC technicians to pretest the operation of the Eicon card before the installation of the X.400 gateway software.

Redirector Software

The Redirector software allows for multiple message transfer agents (MTAs) to be placed on one local-area network (LAN). All MTAs then send to one Eicon card for transportation to the X.25 network. Transportation across the LAN is provided by NETBIOS.
