3.5.1 Frame Relay Physical Configuration
Begin the WPIM-RT1 physical configuration by accessing the WAN
Physical Configuration screen through Local Management (
Figure 3-1 ).
Proceed with the following steps:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the [WPIM X] field at the bottom of
the screen. Press the SPACE bar to select the number of the WPIM to
be configured, then press ENTER.
Use the arrow keys to highlight the MgrType field. Configure Protocol
Manager Type as either FR PtoMP or FR PtoP. There are two settings for
Frame Relay, Point-to-Point (FR PtoP) and Point-to-Multipoint (PtoMP).
Frame Relay Point-to-Point has one Interface per DLCI assigned when
DLCIs are created by the Service Provider. In Frame Relay
Point-to-Multipoint, there is one interface to multiple DLCIs, and the
DLCIs are dynamically learned. Backup can only be run on FR PtoP, not
FR PtoMP.
2. Use the arrow keys to highlight Timeslot View. Press the SPACE bar
to select New, then press ENTER. The cursor moves to the first
timeslot available in the Timeslot Configuration Table.
