Monitoring Frame Relay Interfaces

Frame Relay Interfaces and the GWCON Interface Command

While Frame Relay interfaces have a monitoring process for monitoring purposes, the router also displays complete statistics for installed interfaces when you use the interface command from the GWCON environment. (For more information on the interface command, refer to ªChapter 10. The Operating/Monitoring Process (GWCON - Talk 5) and Commandsº on page 127)

Statistics Displayed For Frame Relay Interfaces

Statistics similar to the following are displayed when you execute the interface command from the GWCON environment for Frame Relay interfaces:

Nt Indicates the interface number as assigned by software during initial con®guration.

Nt' Indicates the interface number as assigned by software during initial con®guration.

Note: For FR dial circuit interfaces, Nt' is different from Nt. Nt' indicates the base interface (ISDN) that the dial circuit is running over.

Interface

Indicates the type of interface and its instance number. Frame relay has a

FR designation.

CSR Indicates the memory location of the control status register for the Frame Relay interface.

Vec Indicates the vector number for the Frame Relay interface.

Self-test Passed

Indicates the total number of times the Frame Relay interface passed self-test.

Self-test Failed

Indicates the total number of times the Frame Relay interface failed self-test.
