Serial Interface 245 HDLC/SDLC Mode Transparent HDLC mode is used for point-to-point HDLC connections across the ATM network. No service-based encapsulation other than AAL5 is needed. All packets are terminated and SAR'd (processed via segmentation and relay) to a single VP/VC in the ATM network. Transparent mode functionality is best implemented with a PRBS type of pattern included in a sequence of frames. The TTC Firebird V.35 frame relay interface provides that simple capability. When using transparent HDLC mode, you set the following parameters: s Minimum number of flags between HDLC frames s CRC type The PathBuilder S330/S310 switch will SAR AAL5 and map HDLC/SDLC frames onto an ATM VCC. You could use the HDLC service for router to router and X.25 to X.25 links. You could use the SDLC service for IBM FID2 3270 SNA Peripheral or IBM FID4 372X SNA Backbone. Figure 176 shows HDLC/SDLC applications. You should disable NRZI on the FEP (i.e., IBM 3745). NRZI is commonly used when the FEP is connected to DSUs over a non-digital line. The PathBuilder S330 switch does not require NRZI to be enabled.
