LMI Behavior

Possible Settings: Independent,

Net1-FR1_Follows_Port-1,

Net1-FR1_Follows_Port-2,

Net1-FR1_Follows_Rtr-S0,

Port-1_Follows_Net1-FR1,

Port-2_Follows_Net1-FR1,

Rtr-S0_Follows_Net1-FR1,

All_Ports_Follow_Net1-FR1,

Port-1_Codependent_with_Net1-FR1,

Port-2_Codependent_with_Net1-FR1,

Rtr-S0_Codependent_with_Net1-FR1,

Default Setting: Independent

Configures the device to allow the state of the LMI to be passed from one interface to another, determining how the unit will handle a change in the LMI state. Sometimes referred to as LMI pass-through.

Display Conditions Port-noptions are available on CSU/DSUs and Rtr-S0 options are available on FrameSaver SLV Routers. Port-2 options are available on units with two data ports.

NOTE: LMI Behavior cannot be changed while Auto Backup is enabled. A warning message appears at the bottom of the screen if auto backup is enabled. First, disable Auto Backup, and then change LMI Behavior.

Independent – Handles the LMI state of each interface separately so that the LMI state of one interface has no effect on the LMI state of another interface. Provides LMI Spoofing. This is the recommended setting when backup is configured, and for Network Service Providers (NSPs).
