Locations of Physical Ports

Serial ports provide access connections to non-LAN devices and routing connections
to networks. Each port must be configured in the software to specify the operating
parameters of the hardware and the protocol that will run on the port.
The FRM supports physical ports, as well as
8), which run on a physical frame relay port.
The physical connectors on an FRM reside on the RLP, but
the circuitry that defines the physical port types is on the
two attached Line Interface Cards (LICs). LIC 1 supports
ports 0–3, and LIC 2 supports ports 4–7.
Because the bus runs across the FRM above the
bottom row of cards, RLPs 1 and RLP 2 are
installed upside down.
