I have a configuration query, relating to VAX-PSI, Cisco Router and X.25

I currently have a VAX, with a PSI Connection onto the X25 Network (PSS).
This is used to bring up DECnet Connections.

Going through Public Networks is becoming a little slow, for what I
wish to do, so therefore I am considering leased lines.

   

  Current:
              9.6 x25
      ----------------------|VAX with PSI Software|


  Can I do this? :
		                   (LAN)
     9.6 x25 (Public-PSS)            |
      ----------------------|Cisco|  |
                            |     |--|---|VAX with PSI Software|
			    |AGS2 |  |
      ----------------------|     |  |
      64k Leased Line

    What this would give me (if possible), is high speed DECNet over 64k
    line, plus backup of PSS Public Line. However, there is now no direct
    physical connection from VAX to x25 - Is it possible for the CISCO
    to complete a virtual circuit? (to give me logically what I have
    currently). Or do I have to keep my PSI Connection, direct into
    the VAX?

    Help Appreciated.
