How does the BANDIT™ support legacy protocols?
A wide range of legacy data protocols perfected in Encore Networks’ earlier line of Frame Relay Access Devices (FRADs) is the basis of the BANDIT™ product. Terminals and hosts using Airline Link Control (ALC); asynchronous and synchronous polled protocols such as IBM’s SDLC and bisync; and X.25 packet switching can communicate over the Internet through the same encrypted tunnels used by IP or over Frame Relay networks.
