Introduction
This appendix describes the Frame Relay Interworking functions (IWF) that are available on the Model 3086. The following information describes how to use and operate the following Frame Relay Interworking feature sets:
•LMI information and user interface (see section “Frame Relay Local Management Interface”).
•FRS (FRF.8) information and user interface (see section “Frame Relay Service Interworking (FRF.8)” on page 176).
•FRN (FRF.5) information and user interface (see section “Frame Relay Network Interworking (FRF.5)” on page 182).
•Frame Relay (Ethernet based) information and user interface (see section “Frame Relay (Ethernet Based) Operations” on page 190).
•Serial Interface Management (see section “Serial Interface Configuration” on page 192).
•Ping and Trace route (see section “Ping and Trace Route” on page 194).
Note Each section describes the CLI and web interface for the feature set.
Frame Relay Local Management Interface
The Frame Relay Local Management Interface (LMI) is a mechanism that enables two separate frame relay sys- tems to communicate the status of the interface. The LMI interface supports dynamic updates on the status of the DLCI connections and the congestion state of the network. The Model 3086 fully the LMI version listed in Table 10.

LMI Configuration Options:
LMI is configurable via the CLI or web interface. The following variables are available for configuration.
managementType: (Default Value: no_maintenance)
the managementType variable defines the LMI protocol that will be used. The following options are available.
•no_maintenance: No maintenance interface will be used for this frame relay connection.
