be unique among all DLCIs used on this interface. The DLCI provi des a unique
frame-relay identifier for this connection.
If you are editing an existing connection, the DLCI field is disabled. If y ou need
to change the DLCI, delete the connection and create it again.

LMI Type Field

Ask your service provider which of the following Local Mana gement Interface
(LMI) types you should use. The LMI type specifies the protocol used to monitor
the connection:

T1.617.
Cisco Option
LMI type defined jointly by Cisco and three other companies.
ITU-T Q.933 Option
ITU-T Q.933 Annex A.
Autosense Option
Default. This setting allows the router to detect which LMI type is being used by
communicating with the switch and to then use that type. If autosense fails, the
router will use the Cisco LMI type.

Use IETF Frame Relay Encapsulation Check Box

Check to use Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) encapsulation. This option
