4-18 Configuring the Frame Relay Protocol
Oper Status
The operational status of the bridge network protocol. Opened indicates that the
interface is operational for bridging. Not Opened indicates that bridging is not
operational on this interface.
Local LanId
Indicates if the local node will include the LAN IdentiÞcation Þeld in transmitted
packets. If the value in this Þeld is True, then the Þeld will be transmitted with the
packet. If the value in the Þeld is False, then the Þeld will not be transmitted.
Remote LanId
Indicates if the remote node will be including the LAN IdentiÞcation Þeld in
transmitted packets. If the value is True, then the Þeld will be transmitted with
the packet. If the value is False, then the Þeld will not be transmitted.
Local Media
Displays the media type(s) of packets that the local PPP bridging entity will
accept. Possible media types are Enet Only, Token Only, and Enet/Token.
Remote Media
Displays the media type(s) of packets that the remote PPP bridging entity will
accept. Possible media types are Enet Only, Token Only, and Enet/Token.
Configuring the Frame Relay Protocol
When you use Frame Relay protocol on your interface(s) all the communication
between the nodes goes through a switch before arriving at the destination node.
If you are using Frame Relay Protocol on any of the interfaces on your WAN
connection you should conÞgure this protocol to work within your speciÞc
network parameters. The Protocols button on the CSX WAN ConÞguration
window will bring up the Frame Relay ConÞguration window. From this window
you can conÞgure the Frame Relay protocol and use the Circuits window to
conÞgure the individual circuits on each interface.
To open the Frame Relay ConÞguration window:
1. Click on . A pull down menu will appear.
2. Drag down to Frame Relay and release. The Frame Relay Configuration
window will appear.
