Italy
BT TYMNET GLOBAL NETWORK CONNECTION SERVICE are BT TYMNET owned and
operated sites and equipment. Global, Regional and local support is
provided end-to-end by BT TYMNET's trained and experienced technical
staff, in place worldwide since 1977. Round the clock coverage for
trouble reporting and response on critical problems is provided. BT
TYMNET Global Network Service enhanced pricing, local currency
billing and end-user billing is available.
ENHANCED GLOBAL CONNECTION SERVICE (EGC) complement the service
described above and is currently available from the following
locations:

ENHANCED GLOBAL CONNECTION SERVICE is offered by a local
Telecommunication Administration equipped with BT TYMNET technology.
In many instances the administration is using BT TYMNET's Network
Supervisors to operate the packet service in their area.
All ENHANCED GLOBAL CONNECTION SERVICE locations offer direct TYM2
(TYMNET's proprietary) protocol connection to the BT TYMNET Public
Network and thus may offer BT TYMNET's comprehensive array of
enhanced protocol services. Most currently offer BT TYMNET
asynchronous access and X.25 service. Naturally, a close affinity
exists between BT TYMNET and ENHANCED GLOBAL CONNECTION SERVICE
providers so a very high degree of service and support exists in
these locations. TYMUSA, a universal dial-up service which is billed
back to the customer's home office, is offered from all the above
locations.
BASIC GLOBAL CONNECTION SERVICE (BGC) completes the full range of
international connectivity and is currently available from the
following locations:

BASIC GLOBAL CONNECTION SERVICE providers connect their networks to
BT TYMNET exclusively via X.75 protocol gateways. The CCITT
recommendation X.75 is closely related to the better known CCITT X.25
recommendation and provides a reliable communication channel for
interworking between Public Data Networks.
As a supplier of network technology to US IRC's and foreign carriers
for more than 10 years, BT TYMNET has a wealth of experience with
the X.75 standard and actively participates in its development. BT
TYMNET X.75 software has evolved into a sophisticated product
providing numerous advanced features not found in other X.75
implementations. BT TYMNET maintains and supports more X.75 gateway
links than any other network in the world.
All of BT TYMNET's X.75 gateways are supported by BT TYMNET's
International Network Services (INS) group which ensures that all the
gateways are configured to provide a uniform interface to BT
TYMNET regardless of the origination network.

TERMINAL IDENTIFIERS
A terminal identifier indicates to the network the characteristics of your
terminal. Most terminals can use the "A" terminal identifier. However, if
your terminal requires a carriage return delay, for example, then the "I"
or the "E" identifier should be used.
At 'please type your terminal identifier' please enter:
A for PC's and CRT terminals (SAVE parity)
C for 300 baud Impact Printer Terminals
E for Thermal Printer Terminals like the SILENT 700 series
F for BETA transaction terminals
G for the GE Terminet at 1200 baud
I for 300 baud Thermal Printer Terminals
K for EVEN/ODD parity terminals (future implementation)
O for MARK/SPACE parity terminals (BBS access)
Y for 300 baud Transaction terminals
Logon Options
At the 'please log in:' prompt the user can specify control characters
to set the network to the needs of the user.
For example when you are connected to a database and the data is
coming in to fast you can backpressure the data by typing control S. The
network however will only react on this command if you specified ^R at
the logon step.
^E - control E - Enter Full Duplex mode (future implementation)
^H - control H - Enter Half Duplex mode - disable echo!!
^I - control I - Build optimal circuit for Interactive traffic
^P - control P - Force EVEN Parity
^R - control R - Enable host backpressure X-on X-off
^U - control U - Force terminal data to uppercase
^V - control V - Build optimal circuit for Volume traffic
^W - control W - Erase login up to last terminator
^X - control X - Enable terminal backpressure X-on X-off
^Z - control Z - Disconnect/Logoff
ESC - escape - Discard login and get NEW please log in prompt
BREAK - break - Switch to CCITT X.3 X.28 X.29 PAD (selected nodes)
PASSWORD CHANGE PROCEDURES
Passwords to usernames can be easily changed if this option has been
enabled by your account manager. Follow the 11 steps listed below.
1. Dial your local TYMNET access number.
2. Send the terminal identifier you normally use (for example 'A')
3. At the please log in: prompt type in 'PASSWORD' <carriage return>
4. A circuit will be established to the validation system, and you
are prompted to enter the username for which you want to change
the password.
5. If the name is correct, you are prompted for the old password.
6. Enter the old password.
7. If old password is correct, you are prompted for the new password.
8. Passwords must have a minimum length of 8 characters and must contain
one or more non-alpha numeric character.
9. The new password is then checked for the valid format.
10. If the password format is valid, enter the new password once more.
The system will immediately modify your password on the network.
11. The system disconnects, and you are back at 'please log in'

used to mean one bit pattern in a specific data code.
CONNECT TIME: The length of time a communications channel
is in use for each transmission. Includes both message
time and operating time.
DNIC: Data Network Identification Code: Every DNIC
consists of 4 digits. The first three digits should always
identify a country and could be regarded as a Data Country
Code (DCC). The fourth, or network digit, should identify
a specific data network in the country.
KILOSEGMENT (Kseg): 1000 segments.
KILOCHARACTER (Kchar): 1000 characters.
NUI: Network User Identifier. Required only for dialup
access. A code which must be quoted on each occasion
before calls may be made.
PROTOCOL: A set of rules or instructions for carrying out
a particular function.
PTT: Postal, Telegraph and Telephone Organization, usually
a governmental department that acts as its nation's common
carrier.
SEGMENT: A chargeable unit of volume. One segment is 0-64
octets (qv) of data.
TRANSMISSION: Sending information in the form of electrical
signals over electric wires, waveguides, or radio.
X.25: CCITT recommendation that specifies the interface
between user data terminal equipment (DTE) and
packet-switching data circuit-terminating equipment (DCE).
X.75: A standard for connecting X.25 networks; developed by
the CCITT.
