CLI Commands for Defining Frame Relay Line Parameters

The CLI commands are given below, followed by brief definitions for each configurable parameter.

CLI> define fr line network pvcSignalling

Options

Description

netN392

Determines the user-side N392 error threshold value for this IfIndex. The range is from 1 to 10; default = 3.

netT392

Indicates the time interval in seconds for the T392 polling verification timer. The range is from 5 to 30 seconds; default = 15.


CLI> define fr line user pvcLMI

Options

Description

n391

The number of status enquiry intervals that pass before a full status enquiry message is sent. (Every nth status enquiry will be a full status enquiry.) The range is from 1 to 255; default = 6.

n392

The maximum number of unanswered status enquiries that will be accepted before the LMI is declared down. The range is from 1 to 10; default = 3.

t391

The number of seconds between successive status enquiry messages. The range is from 5 to 30 seconds; default = 10 seconds.


CLI> define fr line user basePvcLmi

Options

Description

bidirectional

Indicates whether the PVC LMI will send both status inquiries and status reports. The default is false.

lmiMode

Indicates whether the local PVC LMI is operating in DTE or DCE mode. The default setting is unidte.


CLI> define fr line user baseSvcLmi

Options

Description

maxDLCI

The highest DLCI number allowed for an SVC on the Passport 4400. The range is from 17 to 991; default = 991.

maxNumberOfCalls

The maximum number of SVC connections allowed on the Passport 4400. The range is from 1 to 255; default = 255.

maxRxFrameSize

The maximum frame size in bytes that will be accepted on the primary frame relay link between the Passport 4400 and the network. The range is from 0 to 4096. The default value is 0, which indicates that the maximum frame size is determined by the PANL configuration (define msm dtelink command).

maxRxThroughput

Unless overwritten at connect time, this data rate in bits per second (b/s) is used along with minRxThroughput to negotiate with the remote end during call setup. The range is from 0 to 2560000 b/s. If left at 0 (the default), the network will determine the data rate.

maxTxFrameSize

The maximum frame size in bytes that will be transmitted on the primary frame relay link between the Passport 4400 and the network. The range is from 0 to 4096. The default value is 0, which indicates that the maximum frame size is determined by the PANL configuration (define msm dtelink command).

maxTxThroughput

Unless overwritten at connect time, this data rate in bits per second (b/s) is used along with minTxThroughput to negotiate with the remote end during call setup. The range is from 0 to 2560000 b/s. If left at 0 (the default), the network will determine the data rate.

minDLCI

The smallest DLCI number allowed for an SVC on the Passport 4400. The range is from 16 to 991; default = 16.

minRxThroughput

Unless overwritten at connect time, this data rate in bits per second (b/s) is used along with maxRxThroughput to negotiate with the remote end during call setup. The range is from 0 to 2560000 b/s. If left at 0 (the default), the network will determine the data rate.

minTxThroughput

Unless overwritten at connect time, this data rate in bits per second (b/s) is used along with maxTxThroughput to negotiate with the remote end during call setup. The range is from 0 to 2560000 b/s. If left at 0 (the default), the network will determine the data rate.

rxBurstSize

The burst size (Bc) in bytes that the network is committed to receive. The range is from 0 to 2560000 b/s. If left at 0 (the default), the network default will determine the receive burst size.

rxExcessBurstSize

The uncommitted receive burst size (Be) in bytes. The range is from 0 to 2560000 b/s. If left at 0 (the default), the network default will determine the receive burst size. This option is not used in the Passport 4400 system.

t303

Determines how long the SVC LMI waits for a response from the network before transmitting the setup message. The range is from 1 to 255 seconds; default = 4 seconds.

t305

Determines how long the SVC LMI waits for a response from the network before transmitting a release message. The range is from 1 to 255 seconds; default = 30 seconds.

t308

The length of time in seconds that the SVC LMI will wait for a response from the network before retransmitting the release message. When the second release is transmitted, the local SVC LMI considers the corresponding SVC to have been released by the network even if no response has been received. The range is from 1 to 255 seconds; default = 4 seconds.

t310

The length of time in seconds that the SVC LMI will wait for a Connect message from the network, after receiving the Call Proceeding message, before sending a Release message. The range is from 1 to 255 seconds; default = 60 seconds.

txBurstSize

The burst size (Bc) in bytes that the network is committed to transmit. The range is from 0 to 2560000 b/s. If left at 0 (the default), the network default will determine the transmit burst size.

txExcessBurstSize

The uncommitted transmit burst size (Be) in bytes. The range is from 0 to 2560000 b/s. If left at 0 (the default), the network default will determine the transmit burst size. This option is not used in the Passport 4400 system.
