On Node 2, configure the following (as well as other parameters necessary for oper-
ation):
1. Port Configuration (
LP?: 0
RLP Port?: 5
O Additional Parameters
D Configure DLCI Parameters
DLCI ID?: 18
I DLCI Backup Configuration
A Backup Group Number: 0
B Enable Backup Protocol?: N
2. Port Configuration (
LP?: 0
RLP Port?: 6
O Additional Parameters
D Configure DLCI Parameters
DLCI ID?: 19
I DLCI Backup Configuration
A Enable Backup Protocol?: Y
In Example 2, the primary link is between Node 1/LP 2/Port 4/DLCI 16 and Node 2/
Port 5/DLCI 18. The DLCIs should be configured as described for Example 1 (with
the exception, naturally, of Node 2/port 6/DLCI 19). Then if the primary link goes
down, a connection will automatically be established between Node 1/LP 2/Port 5/
DLCI 72 and the "Other Device."
In Example 3, the configuration between Node 1 and Node 2 is the same as in example
1. The "Other Device" must be configured to recognize both the primary and backup
connections.
To run frame relay in an FRX/FRM, make sure the following are properly configured:
Node parameters. See Chapter 3. This is general configuration that must be done
no matter which protocols will be run in the node.
Line Processor(s) that will contain the interface(s) to the user device(s), network
and/or frame relay PVC, plus Line Interface Card(s) supporting the ports that
will be the interfaces. See Chapter 4.
Protocols: frame relay and any others that will be transmitted over the frame
relay link. See Chapter 4.
Frame Relay Bandwidth Allocation Groups (described later in this chapter), if
configuring multiple protocols to run over a frame relay port.
Frame relay port(s) that will connect to the user device(s), network, and/or
PVC(s). See Chapter 5 and the remainder of Chapter 6.
Frame Relay Backup Groups (described later in this chapter), if configuring one
or more backup DLCIs.
Logical port(s) (described later in this chapter), if used.
