3. Configuration Options

Table 3-32. Management PVC Options (5 of 6)

Alternate Link

Possible Settings: Net1-FR1, Port-n, ISDN Link Name, Clear

Default Setting: Initially blank; no default.

Specifies the frame relay interface to use for this management PVC as the alternate link. The interface selected must have at least one DLCI (or DLCI with EDLCI) defined, which is not part of a PVC connection or already assigned as a management PVC.

Display Conditions – This option does not appear unless ISDN backup is available, and does not appear if Payload Managed is enabled.

Net1-FR1– Specifies the Network interface as the frame relay link.

Port-n– Specifies the frame relay link on the user data port as the alternate destination link for the connection.

ISDN Link Name – For units with ISDN backup capability, specifies the ISDN link of the

DBM to be used in the connection. This can be any nonnull link name configured on an

ISDN frame relay link on an installed DBM.

Clear – Clears the link and the DLCI field, and suppresses the EDLCI field if the DLCI was multiplexed.

Alternate DLCI

Possible Settings: 16 – 1007

Default Setting: Initially blank; no default.

Specifies the alternate DLCI number to be used for the management PVC after the frame relay interface is selected.

The DLCI must be defined for the link (i.e., has a DLCI record), and it must not be part of a PVC connection or already assigned as a management PVC. For multiplexed DLCIs, at least one EDLCI must be unconfigured for the DLCI.

Display Conditions – This option does not appear if Payload Managed is enabled. The

DLCI cannot be entered if the Link field is blank.

NOTE: Clearing Link also clears the DLCI.

16 – 1007 – Specifies the DLCI number (inclusive).

Alternate EDLCI

Possible Settings: 0 – 62

Default Setting: Initially blank; no default.

Specifies the alternate EDLCI number used for a management PVC when a multiplexed DLCI is selected for the frame relay link. EDLCIs identify individual connections within multiplexed DLCIs that are unique to those DLCIs.

Use a unique EDLCI to identify an individual connection within a multiplexed DLCI. Use 0 to identify the primary EDLCI. Use 1 – 62 to identify secondary EDLCIs. Use the primary EDLCI for customer data, which has a higher utilization rate than management data, with slightly less line overhead.

Display Conditions – This option does not appear unless ISDN backup is available and the DLCI field does not reference a multiplexed DLCI. This option does not appear if Payload Managed is enabled.

NOTE: Clearing the DLCI or changing it to a standard DLCI suppresses the EDLCI field.

0 – 62 – Specifies the EDLCI number (inclusive).
