Under Linux a separate device is configured for each line. A maximum of 16 lines are supported under Linux. The lines are numbered from 0 to 15. Each line is thus uniquely identified via its own number.
The minimum required version of FarSync X.25 software for Linux is 3.2.9. The required X.25 software can be downloaded from the following site:

XOT support
At least FarSync XOT Runtime version 3.2 is required for the support of XOT (X.25 via TCP/IP) under Linux. A coupling to the FarSync X.25 Gateway or another device from any manufacturer which does support XOT is thus possible.
The FarSync XOT Runtime provides as default under Linux a virtual X.25 interface. The configuration of openFT for using FarSync XOT Runtime is identical with the configuration for using FarSync X.25 cards. In order to address XOT Runtime only the adapter number (standard value: Adapter 0) of the XOT adapter (of the virtual X.25 interface) must be specified. An entry for XOT routing must also be created in the FarSync configuration program, i.e. for outgoing connections, an allocation must be created between a DTE target address and the IP target address of the XOT partner.
