Auto Learning the Frame Relay Configuration

The router is pre-configured to query the frame relay service to auto- learn the LMI type and the PVC DLCI numbers. This auto-learn function allows the router to be plugged into the frame relay service and auto-learn the PVC configuration to become operational without further manual configuration.

Manual configuration is also allowed by modifying the options within each Remote Site Profile and the individual link configuration menus.

When the router first starts up it will query the frame relay service to try to determine the LMI type. Once the LMI type is determined, the PVC configurations will be known from the full status enquiry messages. If the DLCI numbers of the PVC’s on your service are determined during this learning process, the router will automatically create a remote site profile for each PVC. The automatically created remote site profiles will be named “LinkxDLCIyyy” where x is the physical link number the PVC is on and yyy is the DLCI of the PVC.

If during this learning process the maximum number of remote sites (40) has been reached, the router will prompt you that there are no remote sites available. A new remote site cannot be auto-created unless one of the existing remote sites is manually deleted.
