Configure Remote Site Profile for Frame Relay

Each of the PVC’s on the frame relay service must be configured within an individual remote site profile on the router. This is usually done automatically through the auto- learning process. When the frame relay router first starts up it will query the frame relay service to try to determine the PVC configurations. If the DLCI numbers of the PVC’s on your service are determined during startup, the router will automatically create a remote site profile for each PVC. The automatically created remote site profiles will be named “LinkxDLCIyyy” where x is the physical link number the PVC is on and yyy is the DLCI of the PVC.

If during this learning process the maximum number of remote sites has been reached, the router will prompt you that there are no remote sites available. A new remote site cannot be auto-created unless one of the existing remote sites is manually deleted.

These automatically created remote site profiles may be renamed for easier identification or usage by changing the Remote Site Alias.

With auto-learning, the above is all that is required of the user to set-up frame relay remote site profiles. If desired, parameters may be entered manually as follows:

Each PVC defined on this router must have a DLCI (Data Link Connection Identifier) value assigned for proper frame relay communication.
