Configuring Frame Relay DLCIs

Dynamic configuration (LMI)

With Link Management Interface (LMI) enabled on menu-0F, the Dual Trunk E1 Router will automatically discover the configured DLCIs on each of the WAN links.

LMI protocol allows the router to learn the DLCIs from the frame relay switch network. The router will originate and terminate LMI requests and responses.

The Dual Trunk E1 Router support the following three widely used versions of LMI protocol:

•ANSI T1.617 Annex D, referred as Annex D

•ITU Q.933 Annex A, referred as Annex A

•LMI Rev 1.0, referred as Revision 1.0
