I'm not sure if this is an 8.2(1) problem or if it is a hangover of an older 
one.  We've just taken delivery of an AGS which we intend to use as an X25
switch as well as an IP router.  Since we're in the UK on the Janet network
we use X25 services a lot.  The Coloured Books software which Janet runs
uses the X25 Fast select feature when initiating connections.  Unfortunately
the cisco seems to map the Fast select request to a Reverse charge request
when switching X25.  The receiving end refuses the reverse charge and so the
call fails.  Is anyone out there using a cisco router for X25 switching with
Fast select requests?  Are you having any problems?  Do you have any advice?

Mike
