Link Management | Press the [SPACEBAR] and then [ENTER] to | |
| select which standard is compatible with your | ANSI(T1.618) |
| Prestige. Both the Prestige and the peer must | |
|
| |
| use the same standard. The standard defines |
|
| functions that are responsible for monitoring the |
|
| up/down status and error performance of an |
|
| individual link. If failure occurs, recovery actions |
|
| are initiated for the restoration of the failed link. |

4.3How To Configure Frame Relay for Internet Access
4.3.1Encapsulation
Be sure to use the encapsulation method required by your ISP. The Prestige supports the following methods.
RFC 1973 (PPP in Frame Relay)
RFC 1973 describes the use of Frame Relay for transporting PPP encapsulated packets. Please refer to RFC 1973 for more information.
RFC 1490
RFC 1490 describes Multiprotocol Interconnect over Frame Relay encapsulation which is an encapsulation method for carrying network interconnect traffic (both bridging and routing) over a frame relay network. It also describes a simple fragmentation procedure for carrying large frames over a frame relay network with a smaller MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit).
