1. About the FrameSaver SLV

TAuto-Configuration. Provides the following automatic configuration features:

—Time Slot Discovery – For automatic configuration of all network DS0 assignments.

—Frame Relay Discovery – For automatic discovery of network DLCIs and configuration of a user data port DLCI, the PVC connection, and a management PVC, which is multiplexed with user data DLCIs.

—LMI Protocol Discovery – For automatic configuration of the protocol being used by the network.

—DLCI Deletion – For automatic removal of configuration of unused DLCIs from the unit’s configuration and statistical databases.

—CIR Determination – For automatic recalculation of the committed rate measurement interval (Tc) and excess burst size (Be) when a DLCI’s CIR changes.

—Excess burst size (Be) and committed burst size (Bc) are recalculated when Committed Burst Size Bc (Bits) is set to CIR. The committed rate measurement interval (Tc) is recalculated when Committed Burst Size Bc

T(Bits) is set to Other.

Multiplexed Management PVCs. Provides a method of multiplexing management data with customer data transparently over a single PVC (Permanent Virtual Circuit) when FrameSaver devices are at each end of the

Tcircuit. This feature also makes it possible to run nondisruptive PVC tests.

Extensive Testing Capability. Provides a variety of tests to identify and diagnose device and network problems, including nondisruptive PVC loopbacks and end-to-end connectivity. Tests can be commanded from the unit’s menu-driven user interface or the OpenLane system.

These tests include V.54 or FT1-ANSI data channel loopback support so the frame relay network service provider can perform a physical loopback from its own switch without having to contact the local service provider for loopback

Tactivation.

LMI Packet Capture. Provides a way of uploading data that has been captured in a trace file so the data can be uploaded and transferred to a Network Associates Sniffer for analysis, or viewed via the menu-driven user interface. When viewed from the menu-driven user interface, the twelve most recent LMI messages are displayed via the LMI Trace Log.
