26. 2 Limiting the number of concurrent X 25 or ISDN receivers You must specify the number of concurrently active X 25 and ISDN receivers A small number is adequate for low traffic a higher number is required if you must be able to receive data on several connections in parallel However there cannot be more X 25 receivers than virtual channels are available on your X 25 multichannel In the case of ISDN there cannot be more receivers than B channels are available Because senders also occupy virtual channels or B channels in ISDN respectively the number of concurrent receivers should be limited to half the total number of channels MAXX25RCV MasterTransmitter rvsxmt uses the MAXX25RCV parameter to determine how many receivers must run concurrently It prestarts as many X 25 ISDN receivers as specified by the parameter If a receiver terminates MasterTransmitter will start a new receiver which in turn will wait for incoming calls MAXX25RCV if set to 0 prevents any incoming X 25 or ISDN traffic It must be set to 0 if only TCP IP communication is used You must define additional entries in the X 25 routing table on high performance systems if MAXX25RCV is greater than 1 For further details read 4 1 4 Setting up the routing connection 1 6 3 TCP IP receiver TCPIPRCV Ifyou want to communicate via TCP IP rvsXP has to start a receiver and waiting for incoming calls You must set the value of the TCPIPRCV MAX_IN parameter Set TCPIPRC
