Configuring a Trunking Service
To configure a Frame Relay Trunking service, you must use the cas command. Perform the
following steps:
1. Enter the cas command followed the slot number, a slash (/), the port number, and then
the service number for the Trunking service:
cas 2/3 1
A screen similar to the following displays:
Slot 1 Port 2 Service 3 Configuration
1) Description ................................................................... = Frame-Relay
{Enter up to 30 characters}
2) Service Type ................................................................. = Bridging
{(T)runking, (R)outing, (B)ridging}
3) Administrative Status .................................................... = Enabled
{(E)nable, (D)isable}
4) VC(s)............................................................................. = 0
5) VLAN Group(s).............................................................. = 0
6) Frame-Relay Bridging Mode (Applies to Bridging Only).. = Bridge All
{Bridge (a)ll, (E)thernet only}
(save/quit/cancel)
:
You make changes to the options in this screen at the colon prompt (:). You make
changes by entering the line number for the option you want to change, an equal sign
(=), and then the value for the new parameter.
2. Enter a description of this Trunking service by entering 1, an equal sign (=), and then a
description for this service. Your description can be up to 30 characters long.
1=<trunk service name>
When you are done entering a description, press <Enter>.
3. Specify that this is a Trunking service by entering a 2, an equal sign, and a T as follows:
2=T
This specifies that you want to set up a Trunking service, as opposed to a bridging or
Routing service. Press <Enter>.
4. By default, the Trunking service is Enabled. This means that as soon as you are done
configuring the service, it will begin Trunking Frame Relay traffic as you configure it
through this menu. If you would like to disable this Trunking service now and enable it
later, enter 3=D and press <Enter>.
