Chapter Frame Relay Service Modules (FRSMs)
Frame RelaytoATM Direction
Each Frame RelaytoATM service interworking connectio n can be conf ig ured as one of t he foll o wi ng
Discard Eligibility (DE ) to cell loss priority (CLP) s c he mes:
DE bit in the Frame Relay f r am e is m a p pe d to th e C LP bit of every ATM cell generated by the
segmentation process of the fram e.
CLP is always 0.
CLP is always 1.
ATMtoFrame Relay Direction
Each Frame RelaytoATM service interworking connectio n can be conf ig ured as one of t he foll o wi ng
CLP to DE mapping sc he m es :
If one or more ATM cells belonging to a frame has its CLP set, the DE field of the Frame Relay
frame will be set.
DE is always 0.
DE is always 1.
Setting up the cell loss priori ty opt io n i s acco mpli she d t hro ugh th e MGX 8 220 cnfchanmap (configure
channel map) command.
Congestion Indication
Frame RelaytoATM Direction
Each Frame RelaytoATM service interworking connectio n can be conf ig ured as one of t he foll o wi ng
Forward Explicit Congestion Notification (FECN) to Explicit-Forward Congestion Indicator (EFCI)
schemes:
FECN bit in the Frame Relay frame is mapped to the EFCI bit of every ATM cell generated by the
segmentation process of the fram e.
EFCI is always 0.
EFCI is always 1.
ATMtoFrame Relay Direction
Frame RelaytoATM service interworking connection s u se the following EFCI to FECN /B E C N
mapping schemes:
If the EFCI bit in the las t ATM cell of a se gmente d fr ame r ecei v ed is set to 1, th e FE CN of the Fra me
Relay frame will be set to 1.
BECN is always set to 0.
Setting up the congestion indication option is accomplished through the cnfchanmap (configure
channel map) command.
Command/Response Mapping
Command/Response Mapping is provided in both directions.
Frame RelaytoATM Direction
The FRSM maps the C/R bit of t he r ece ived Fr ame Relay frame to the CPCS-UU le ast -significant bit
of the AAL5 CPCS PDU.
