Adding a Frame Relay Connection

Note The following step applies to Y-cable redundancy for the MGX-FRSM-2T3E3. For 1:N redundancy on the eight-port FRSMs, refer to “Redundancy Support by the MGX-SRM-3T3/B.”

Step 7 Optionally configure Y-cable redundancy if you have connected the lines of adjacent MGX-FRSM-2T3 or MGX-FRSM-2E3 cards through a Y-cable. The applicable commands are addred, dspred, and delred. These commands run on the PXM rather than the service module, so you must change to the PXM CLI to execute them:

addred <redPrimarySlotNum> <redSecondarySlotNum> <redType>

•redPrimarySlotNum is the slot number of the primary card. The possible numbers are 1–6, 9–14, 17–22, and 25–30.

•redSecondarySlotNum is the slot number of the primary card. The possible numbers are 1–6, 9–14, 17–22, and 25–30.

•redType is the type of redundancy. Enter a 1 for 1:1 Y-cable redundancy.

Adding a Frame Relay Connection

This section describes how to add a Frame Relay connection according to the rules for adding a standard connection or a management connection in the form of either a DAX con or a three-segment connection. See “Rules for Adding Connections” earlier in this chapter.

Step 1 Add a connection by using addcon. If the application requires the NSAP form for the endpoint, use addchan as described in the command reference.

The system automatically assigns the next available channel number, so the addcon command does not require it. However, some related commands require a channel number. To see the channel number after you add a connection, use dspcons.

On the FRSM-VHS cards (2CT3, 2T3E3, or HS2):

addcon <port> <DLCI> <cir> <chan_type> <egress_service_type> [CAC] <controller_type> <mastership> [connID] <controllerID>

•port is the logical port number on the MGX-FRSM-2CT3 in the range 1–256. On the MGX-FRSM-2T3E3 and MGX-FRSM-HS2, the range is 1–2. (See addport step if necessary.)

•DLCI is the DLCI number in the range 0–1023 (2CT3/2T3/2E3/HS2).

•cir is the committed information rate in one of the following ranges:

for 2CT3, 0–1536000 bps; for 2T3, 0–44210000 bps; 2E3, 0–34010000 bps; and for HS2, 0–51840000 bps.

•chan_type specifies the type of connection: 1=NIW, 2=SIW-transparent mode; 3=SIW with translation; 4=FUNI, and 5=frame forwarding.

•egress_service_type is a number that specifies the type of queue on the egress: 1=high priority; 2=real-time VBR, 3=nonreal-time VBR; 4=ABR; and 5=UBR.

•CAC optionally enables connection admission control; 1=enable. 2=disable (default). With CAC enabled, the system adds the resource consumption represented by adding the connection to the total resources consumed on a logical port.

•controller_type is the controller type for signaling connections: 1 (the default) specifies a PVC and applies to PAR. 2 specifies a SPVC and applies to PNNI.

MGX-FRSM-HS2, MGX-FRSM-2T3E3, MGX-FRSM-2CT3 specifications

Cisco Systems is a leader in networking technology and infrastructure, providing solutions that drive innovation and efficiency for businesses worldwide. Among its diverse range of products, the MGX series stands out as a pivotal component for the network-centric era, especially with models like MGX-FRSM-2CT3, MGX-FRSM-2T3E3, and MGX-FRSM-HS2. These modules are primarily designed for the MGX 8800 series routers, facilitating efficient traffic management and service delivery.

The MGX-FRSM-2CT3 is a versatile module that supports two T3 connections. It allows network operators to seamlessly integrate high-capacity circuit-switched and packet-switched data on a unified platform. This versatility is crucial for service providers looking to enhance their bandwidth offerings while ensuring reliable performance across voice, video, and data applications.

In contrast, the MGX-FRSM-2T3E3 module caters to operators needing E3 support. This feature allows for efficient data transport over a broader bandwidth, catering to European standards. The E3 configuration is vital for service providers operating in Europe or regions that utilize E3 technology prominently.

The MGX-FRSM-HS2 module is another significant offering, designed to accommodate the increasing demand for high speed and high capacity. It supports higher-order TDM and packet technologies, enabling operators to implement advanced services such as VoIP, video conferencing, and other data-intensive applications. This module provides scalability and reliability, making it ideal for next-generation networks.

All three modules leverage Cisco’s advanced switching and routing technology, ensuring optimal performance and minimal latency. The integration of Quality of Service (QoS) features allows network administrators to prioritize traffic types effectively, ensuring mission-critical applications receive the necessary bandwidth.

Additionally, these MGX modules support various signaling protocols, enabling interoperability with existing network infrastructure while also facilitating the migration to newer technologies. They play an essential role in modernizing telecom networks, allowing service providers to adapt to changing market demands and technology landscapes.

In summary, the Cisco MGX-FRSM-2CT3, MGX-FRSM-2T3E3, and MGX-FRSM-HS2 modules are key components for businesses looking to enhance their networking capabilities. With their robust support for T3 and E3 technologies, high scalability, and advanced QoS features, these modules empower service providers to deliver a wide range of services, drive innovation, and meet the growing demands of users in an increasingly connected world.
