I learned all about this topic even before I started playing with UNIX systems
by having to teach X.25 PAD and the 3708 protocol converter. There's no
better way to drive the point home than by having students in an X.25 class
enter set 2:0 .

Err..
IIRC, actually, that'd be an X.3 PAD[1]. X.25 describes the packet
interface, X.29 describes how to use X.25 to send control commands from
a DCE to a PAD (using qualified packets), and X.28 defines how to
interact with the PAD from a DTE (entering commands following and escape
command, usually by sending a DLE (^P), but might be different when not
using Prof0).

IIRC, SET 2:0 should turn PAD echo off right (that is not the local
echo, but the echo of characters received from the PAD back to the
terminal).
[1] For ref : PAD stands for Packet Assembler Disassembler and is
designed to allow a start/stop terminal to interact with an X.25
connected system.
