General Configuration Using Local ManagementCSX400 and CSX400-DC User’s Guide 175Active Protocol — Displays the active OSI Layer protocol. This field displays None, FR (FrameRelay), or PPP (Point-to-Point). The default setting is None.If you select PPP, the following field appears:PPP Type: This field displays BNCP or LEX.Circuit State: Toggles between Active, Inactive and Invalid.PT# — Displays the application ports (bridge ports) available from the host platform to the WAN.If the active protocol is PPP, Local Management assigns only one application port per interfacenumber (IF#). If the active protocol is Frame Relay, Local Management assigns the available WANbridge ports from the host platform, one per DLCI.You can assign WAN application ports to the 31 interfaces for the PPP configuration that suits yourneeds. In a Frame Relay configuration, you can assign all WAN application ports to one interface.In this example, the remaining 30 interfaces would not have WAN application ports available.The quantity of application ports for a Frame Relay network is determined by the quantity ofDLCIs (Data Link Connection Identifiers) assigned to that Interface. This is determined eithermanually or by the LMP (Link Management Protocol).IF# — Displays the Interface that is associated with the application port.LID — Displays the Link Identifier. If the active protocol is Frame Relay, the Data LinkConnection Identifier is displayed. If the active protocol for this interface is PPP, then PPP displaysin this field.STATE — Displays the status of the application port. If the active protocol is Frame Relay, thisfield displays the status as Active, Inactive, or Disabled (for No LMI). If the active protocol is PPP,this field displays UP (for active) or DOWN (for inactive).PORTS: [xx-xxx] — Toggles through the ports.
