frame-relay

Use frame relay encapsulation.

ppp

Point to Point Protocol.

hdlc

Raw hdlc protocol

lmi-protocol

lmi-protocol type where: type = {none | ansi | consortium | q933 }
Local Management Interface. Specifies how frame-relay products exchange
status information between devices such as routers. Only configure when frame-
relay
is selected for the frame mode.

none

Use none to indicate no protocol.

ansi

Sets the lmi protocol to use T1 ANEX 'D' protocol, which is the most widely
used protocol type.

consortium

Selects protocol compliant with the FRF.1.1 standards (Frame Relay Forum 1.1).

q933

Sets the lmi protocol to use ITU Q.933 ANEX 'A' protocol. An international
protocol type.

vcc(x)

vcc(x) where: x=[1-4] Sets the node to the vcc node specified to configure VCC
parameters

option

option y where: y = [ off | on ]
Enables or disables the VCC referenced by vcc(x)

type

type y where y = [ direct | ethernet ]
Only configure when frame-relay is selected for the frame mode.
direct: Selects whether the encapsulation for this VCC will only contain

Frame Relay packet encapsulation

ethernet: Selects whether the encapsulation for this VCC will include

ethernet packet encapsulation along with Frame Relay encapsulation.

control

control y where y = [ none | q922 ]:
Only configure when frame-relay is selected for the frame mode.

local-dlci

local-dlci y where y = [ 0 - 1023 ]:
Only configure when frame-relay is selected for the frame mode.
Data Link Connection Identifier. The frame relay virtual circuit number
corresponding to a particular destination. The DLCI is part of the frame relay
header.

FDL

The Facilities Data Link is a T1 term specifically relating to Extended
SuperFrame (ESF). ESF increases the standard T1 frame from 12 to 24
consecutive frames of information. This allows for a 4 Kbps link to be used for
the FDL. This link supports the communication of various network information
in the form of in-service monitoring and diagnostics. Enter the FDL node by
entering the following from the top of the CONFIG mode as shown:

(top)>> ROUTER
(ROUTER)>>

fdl-setup

(ROUTER

fdl-setup

)>>

Follow these steps to configure the FDL. See the command descriptions for
each command for its syntax.

1. The WAN connection must be in ESF mode.

To configure the WAN that the FDL is assigned to, enter ESF for the WAN
frame mode. Page 6-55 shows the WAN configuration menu.
