FRM Configuri ng Frame Relay 7-21
Frame Relay PVC Parameters
1 The DLCI must ma tch the DLCI configured at the remote end of t he physica l link.
Connecti on Priority
prioritizes this connection for intr a-n odal traff ic; the higher the n umber, t he higher the
priority. (This priority has no effect on traffic exiting a node.)
Priorities are configured on all logical interfaces that use a physical frame relay port.
The device processor in the node uses these priorities to help determine the order in
which it will process protocols.
When configuring priorities, be careful to consider the types of
traffic being routed on other connections in the node.
Traffic Type
specifies whether o r not the PVC will be used to transport Vo ice packets. If set to
Voice, the PVC will transport only the Voice packets from the incoming traffic. Data
packets will be routed as though there was no PVC configured on the DLCI.
Primary/Secondary Name
identifies each end of the connection to the console operator. The software does not
use this information.
Primary/Secondary DLC I
is a logical connection identifier for each end of the PVC.
The DLCIs are defined her e. If rat e cont r ol (C IR , BC, B E) will be enforced,
be sure to configure those parameters in the frame relay Port record. (See
page 7-1 8.)
Primary/Secondary Port
is the port at each end of the internal connection.
