“Quick Start” Frame Relay
Since the P850 auto-learns the frame relay configuration, only a couple
of parameters need to be configured before the unit is fully operational
as an IP router for frame relay.
Upon initial start up, the P850 is pre-configured to query the frame
relay service to auto-learn the LMI type and the PVC DLCI numbers.
The P850 will then automatically create a remote site profile for each
PVC.
Within each of the remote site profiles automatically created Bridging,
IP routing, and IPX routing are all set to “enabled”. Because each of
these options are enabled by default and the automatically created
remote site profiles will establish a PVC connection to the remote site
routers, the P850 will bridge and IPX route data without any user
configuration. Because an IP router requires an IP address, the P850
must be configured with an IP address before IP routing is fully
operational.
To configure an IP address for the P850, use the IP address option.
