NetIPC Fundamentals
Direct Access to Level 3 (X.25)
If the connection is accepted, up to 128 bytes of call user data may be
placed in the call confirmation packet using IPCRECVCN. Once accepted,
the virtual circuit is open and can be used as a virtual circuit that does
not have fast select. The side that closes the connection can send
128 bytes of clear user data in the clear packet using the IPCSHUTDOWN
call. Figure 1-13 is an example of the sequence of calls used with fast
select, no restriction.
