X.25 PAD Connections
The ARN provides X.25 PAD functions that enable the router to access X.25 
services through the 8 ports of an attached breakout box. The PAD establishes and 
maintains links with the packet switch network, assembles and disassembles 
packets, communicates with the character terminal, and handles special control 
processes for the character terminal. 
You connect the X.25 ports using an RS-232-D serial connection as shown in 
Table C-12.
