4. Configuration Options

Table 4-11. Circuit Records Options (2 of 3)

DLCI Type

Possible Settings: Standard, Multiplexed, IP Enabled

Default Setting: Multiplexed

Specifies whether the DLCI is standard, multiplexed, or IP Enabled. 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 cannot be changed if the DLCI is specified as the TS Access Management Link. It is not applicable when FRF.8 Encapsulation Mode is set to Translational (see Table 4-12, Network ATM Options).

Standard – Supports standard DLCIs as specified by the Frame Relay Standards. Use this setting when a non-FrameSaver unit is at the other end.

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.

IP Enabled – Enables connection to one or more endpoints through a Layer 3 network. A Payload Management PVC is created as well as the IP Enabled DLCI.

CIR (bps)

Possible Settings:

9783: 0 – 2320000

9788: 0 – 2312000

Default Setting: 0

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

0maximum – Specifies the network-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 based on the CIR (bps) and Committed Burst Size Bc (Bits) settings.

Committed Burst Size Bc (Bits)

Possible Settings: CIR, Other

Default Setting: CIR

Specifies whether the DLCI’s committed burst size uses the CIR setting or is 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.
