Table 3-7. DLCI Record Options (2 of 3)

DLCI Type

Possible Settings: Standard, Multiplexed

Default Setting:

For user data port DLCIs: Standard

For network interface DLCIs: Multiplexed

Specifies whether the DLCI is standard or multiplexed. This field is read-only when the selected DLCI is used in a PVC or Management link connection and the DLCI Type is Standard.

Display Conditions ± This option does not appear for the user data port, and it cannot be changed if the DLCI is specified as the TS Management Link.

Standard ± Supports standard DLCIs as specified by the Frame Relay Standards. Use this setting when a non-FrameSaver unit is at the other end. For user data port DLCIs, this is the only selection available.

Multiplexed ± Enables multiplexing of multiple connections into a single DLCI. Allows a single PVC through the frame relay network to carry multiple DLCIs as long as these connections are between the same two endpoints (proprietary). Do not select Multiplexed unless there are FrameSaver units at both ends of the connection.

CIR (bps)

Possible Settings: 0 ± 128000

Default Setting: 64000

Determines the data rate for the DLCI that the network commits to accept and carry without discarding frames; the CIR in bits per second. Entry of an invalid rate causes the error message Value Out of Range (0 ± x), where x = the maximum line rate available on the port.

0 ± maximum CIR rate ± Specifies the DLCI's committed data rate.

Tc

Possible Settings: 1 ± 65535

Default Setting: Read Only

Displays the DLCI's calculated value of its committed rate measurement interval (Tc) in milliseconds. This value is calculated based upon the settings for the Committed Burst Size Bc (Bits) and CIR (bps) options.

Committed Burst Size Bc (Bits)

Possible Settings: CIR, Other

Default Setting: CIR

Specifies whether the DLCI's committed burst size will follow the CIR, or whether it will be entered independently. This value is the maximum amount of data that the service provider has agreed to accept during the committed rate measurement interval (Tc).

CIR ± Uses the value in the CIR (bps) option as the committed burst size (Bc). The Bc and excess burst size (Be) options are updated when a CIR update is received from the network switch.

Other ± Allows you to specify the committed burst size for the DLCI. When Other is selected, the Bc and Be values must be manually entered and maintained, as well.
