4.Enter the description for the circuit in the Description field. This is a mandatory field. Without a descrip- tion you cannot create a WAN service.

5.Click on Create a new service in the main window, select Frame relay bridged and click on the Configure button.

6.Click along the following path: Services Configuration > WAN > ‘Edit...’ Then click on Edit ‘Frame Relay Channel’. The configurable parameters are:

•DLCI: Consult with your service provider for the DLCI number required.

•Encapsulation type: Bridged Ether (Defines the RFC 1490 encapsulation type to be used by the channel. In some instances you may need to choose another type. Consult your service provider.)

•RX Max PDU: 8192 Receive side max PDU, default 8192 (normally not changed from default)

•TX Max PDU: 8192 Transmit side max PDU, default 8192(normally not changed from default)

•Channel segment size. The channel segment size is used to define fragmentation of the packets based on the Frame Relay Forum IA FRF.12. If this variable is set to 0 then FRF.12 “Frame Relay Fragmentation” will be disabled, if set to any other value it will set the fragmentation size used.

•Port: Defines the port that should be used to setup the Frame Relay Connection. For routed applications the port should be set to “frf”, for bridged applications the port should be set to “fr”.

Click on the Create button.

This conclude the central site configuration.
