Configuring PVC Connections

The Auto-Configuration feature automatically configures PVC Connections and their DLCI Records. PVC Connections can also be created manually (see Table 4-15, PVC Connection Options).

Main Menu Configuration PVC Connections

From this screen, you can go directly to the Management PVC screen by selecting the MgmtPVCs function key for easy movement between screens.

Quick removal of unused DLCIs (and ISDN Link Profiles, except for HQ_Site, if the model has an ISDN DBM installed) included in an existing PVC Connection is also available when the Delete function key is selected and you respond Yes to the

Remove otherwise unused components associated with the deleted PVC? prompt.

Table 4-15. PVC Connection Options (1 of 4)

Source Link

Possible Settings: Port-n, ISDN Link Name, Net1-FR1, Rtr-S0

Default Setting: Initially blank; no default.

Specifies the frame relay interface that starts a PVC connection; the from end of a from-to link. The only valid settings for this configuration option are frame relay interfaces that have at least one DLCI or EDLCI defined that are not part of a PVC connection or management link. For example, if Port-1 has no DLCIs defined, Port-1 would not appear as a valid setting.

Net1-FR1– Specifies that the network interface be used in the connection.

ISDN Link Name – For units with ISDN backup capability, specifies the ISDN link of the DBM as the source link. This can be any nonnull link name configured on an ISDN frame relay link.

Port-n– For CSU/DSUs, specifies that the frame relay link on the user data port be used in the connection.

Rtr-S0– For the FrameSaver SLV 9126-II Router, specifies that the frame relay link on the virtual router port be used in the connection.

Clear All – Clears all Link and DLCI settings, and suppresses EDLCIs.

Source DLCI

Possible Settings: 16 – 1007

Default Setting: Initially blank; no default.

Specifies the source DLCI for a frame relay interface. The DLCI must be defined and cannot be part of a PVC connection or management link. For multiplexed DLCIs, at least one EDLCI must be unconnected for the DLCI to be a valid selection.

NOTE: Source DLCI has no value if Source Link contains no value.

16 – 1007 – Specifies the DLCI number.
