Introduction
The async PAD function in the FRM allows asynchronous devices to connect to a
frame relay or X.25 network.
Async support includes:
Local login passwords
Autocall, with dial-in delay ability
Autobaud
Automatic disconnect on inactivity
X.29 support
Abbreviated addressing
RTS/CTS hardware flow control
To run a port as an integral async PAD in an FRM, make sure the following are con-
figured in the database:
Node
parameters, which is general configuration that must be done no matter
which protocols will be run in the node. See Chapter 4.
RLPs
that will contain the interface(s) to the user device(s), plus Line Interface
Card(s) supporting the ports that will be the interfaces. See Chapter 5.
Loaded
Protocol(s): Async, plus frame relay or X.25. See Chapter 5 .
Frame relay port(s)

Async port(s)
(page 12-8) that will connect to the user device(s).
Subscriber ID(s)

Abbreviated address(es)
"nicknames" to be assigned to subscriber addresses, to ease entry of addresses.
PVC connection(s)
between two ports in the node. A PVC can be created between two async ports
or between an async port and an X.25 port.
