AI2524 Router Card User’s Manual

Before you configure the DLCI priority levels, complete these tasks:

1.Define a global priority list.

2.Enable Frame Relay encapsulation, as described earlier in this sec- tion.

3.Define static or dynamic address mapping, as described earlier in this section.

4.Make sure that you define each of the DLCIs to which you intend to apply levels. You can associate priority-level DLCIs with sub- interfaces.

5.Configure the LMI, as described earlier in this section.

Note:

DLCI priority levels provide a way to define multiple

 

parallel DLCIs for different types of traffic. DLCI priority

 

levels do not assign priority queues within the router or

 

access server; in fact, they are independent of the device's

 

priority queues. However, if you enable queuing and use

 

the same DLCIs for queuing, then high-priority DLCIs

 

can be put into high-priority queues.

In interface configuration mode, configure DLCI priority levels by en- abling multiple parallel DLCIs for different types of Frame Relay traf- fic, associating specified DLCIs with the same group, and defining their levels:

frame-relay priority-dlci-group group-

number high-dlci medium-dlci normal-dlci low-dlci

Note:

If you do not explicitly specify a DLCI for each of the

 

priority levels, the last DLCI specified in the command

 

line is used as the value of the remaining arguments.

 

However, you must provide at least the high-priority and

 

the medium-priority DLCIs.
