5.5.2 DLCI address
SE/PVC Configuration Parameters
NOTE: FRF.8 mode parameters that are common to other PVC modes are described
in the section “ATMPVCR Mode” on page 5-4.
Console SNMP Text-based Config
Port atmpvcFrPort [atmpvc#] FrPort
Set to the port or channel number that provides the Frame Relay access link.
NOTE: This list is automatically generated by the NetPerformer, and can include
built-in serial ports, ports on a Dual Serial interface card, and digital data
channels. From this list, you must select a port or channel configured with
the FR-USER protocol.
Values: automatically generated list of ports and channels
Default: 1
Console SNMP Text-based Config
DLCI address atmpvcDlciAddress [atmpvc#] DlciAddress
This parameter determines the Data Link Connection Identifier (DLCI) address of the
PVC. To have the unit learn the DLCI address automatically from the Frame Relay switch,
set this parameter to zero (0, the default value). AUTO DLCI is applicable to PVCs in
PVCR mode only. The NetPerformer obtains the correct address for the PVCR PVC from
the network through the Full Status Report. In the factory setup, 8 PVCR PVCs with
AUTO DLCI are allocated on Port 1.
To set this parameter manually, select a non-zero value. When the PVC is set in PVCR,
RFC1490 or TRANSP mode this address is provided by the carrier, and represents the
virtual circuit identification for accessing the remote unit. When the PVC is set in
MULTIPLEX mode, the DLCI address must be the same as that of the Frame Relay enduser
device attached to the NetPerformer port that this PVC uses.
NOTE: This parameter is not required for a PVC in ATM-MULTIPLEX mode.
