FRM Configuri ng Frame Relay 7-15
1If the Committed Information Rate is set to 0 and the Excess Burst Size is set to a value
greater than 0, the DE (Discard Eligibility) bit will be turned on in all received (In ) and/
or tra nsmitte d (Out ) frames.
2CIR = Committed Information Rate. (See first parameter in table.)
3Set Outgoing DLCI Prior i ty to 4 for all Voice DLCIs (DLCIs over which Voice packets
will be sent) .
4Applicable only on the initiating n ode. (See explan ation.) If configuring a DLCI that will
be backed up, you must leave this value at 0 unt il yo u have configu red a back up gro up.
Then re-enter Port Configuration on this RLP/port/DLCI and specify the desired group.
A valu e of 0 means that the DLCI will not be backed up; therefore, set the Group to 0 if
the DLCI will be a backup.
5Specify N for the initiating backup DLCI and Y for the remote backup DLCI.
6Displa y e d onl y if Backup Group Number
is a value other than 0.
7Valid only if the remote node is an FRX6000 or FRM.
8If set to 65535, switchback will not occur unless the backup fails.

Port Type

specifies the protocol the port will support. Selecting this parameter will display a list of all serial protocols loaded in the SmartSwitch.

Physical Port Interface

must be configured as follows. For reference, port locations are shown on page 6- 1.
Port 0 is a lways RS-232.
Port 1 is RS-232 or DSU, depending on whether the optional CSU/DSU card is
installed.
Ports 2 and 3 are determined by the attached cables: RS-232, V.35, or RS-449.
