CONFIGURING ALTERNATE ACCESSES

Frame Relay Accesses

However, under the above stated conditions, the network configuration shown below would not be allowed:

DLCI 1 -> NE2

CSX1200

Frame Relay

DLCI 2 ->NE 2

"Site1"

CSX1200

NOT ALLOWED

"Site2"

Switched connections can only be used as a backup to frame relay. As such, a switched connection would be made to a given node connected by a frame relay access only after that frame relay access had failed. Switched and packet mode services will not be allowed to connect any given two nodes simultaneously. The following diagram is provided as an example. The INS 64 connection between sites SITE1 and SITE2 would only be made if the frame relay connection was somehow lost.
