T Auto-Configuration. Provides the following automatic configuration features:
— Time Slot Discovery – For automatic configuration of all network DS0
assignments.
— Frame Relay Discovery – For automatic discovery of network DLCIs and
configuration of a user data port DLCI, the PVC connection, and a
management PVC, which is multiplexed with user data DLCIs.
— LMI Protocol Discovery – For automatic configuration of the protocol being
used by the network.
— DLCI Deletion – For automatic removal of configuration of unused DLCIs
from the unit’s configuration and statistical databases.
— CIR Determination – For automatic recalculation of the committed rate
measurement interval (Tc) and excess burst size (Be) when a DLCI’s CIR
changes.
— Excess burst size (Be) and committed burst size (Bc) are recalculated
when Committed Burst Size Bc (Bits) is set to CIR. The committed rate
measurement interval (Tc) is recalculated when Committed Burst Size Bc
(Bits) is set to Other.
T Maximum Number of PVCs and Management PVCs Supported.
T Multiplexed Management PVCs. Provides a method of multiplexing
management data with customer data transparently over a single PVC
(Permanent Virtual Circuit) when FrameSaver devices are at each end of the
circuit. This feature also makes it possible to run nondisruptive PVC tests.
T Extensive Testing Capability. Provides a variety of tests to identify and
diagnose device and network problems, including nondisruptive PVC
loopbacks and end-to-end connectivity. Tests can be commanded from the
unit’s menu-driven user interface or the OpenLane system.
These tests include V.54 or FT1-ANSI data channel loopback support so the
frame relay network service provider can perform a physical loopback from its
own switch without having to contact the local service provider for loopback
activation.
T LMI Packet Capture. Provides a way of uploading data that has been
captured in a trace file so the data can be uploaded and transferred to a
Network Associates Sniffer for analysis, or viewed via the menu-driven user
interface. When viewed from the menu-driven user interface, the twelve most
recent LMI messages are displayed via the LMI Trace Log.
T Integral Modem. Provides an internal 14.4 Kbps modem to support dialing in
to the unit for out-of-band management and automatic dialing out of SNMP
traps.
