CSX WAN Configuration4-22Configuring the Frame Relay ProtocolViewing the Circuit ConfigurationThe Frame Relay protocol can be set to two different states: ansiT1617 with LMI(Local Management Interface) or noLmiConfigured. A frame relay network usescircuits as connections to the other points on the network. When an LMI isconfigured for your interface, the circuits will automatically be listed in the FrameRelay Circuit Table. The switch will report the circuits to your device. If there is noLMI on your connection, you will have to manually add the circuits. The FrameRelay Circuit Table displays the circuits that are currently defined on all the framerelay interfaces configured on the device.To view the Frame Relay Circuit Table window:1. From the Frame Relay Protocol Configuration window, click on . TheFrame Relay Circuit Table, Figure 4-9, will be displayed.Figure 4-9. The Frame Relay Circuit Table WindowThe following fields are displayed in the Frame Relay Circuit Table. The State,Committed Burst, Excess Burst, and CIR fields are user-configurable.If#Displays the number of the interface this virtual circuit is layered upon.DLCIThe Data Link Connection Identifier for the virtual circuit. This is a routing IDthat links the logical port to a virtual connection on the physical frame relay port.This number is usually assigned by your frame relay provider. The CSX200 cansupport up to 4 virtual circuits and the CSX400 can support up to 32 per interface.
