When Changes Take Effect at the Port

Frame Relay Port Parameters

Physical Interface
Configuring Frame Relay
When you add a new Port record, it will be written to the database as soon as you enter
the final parameter value. When you modify a parameter in an existing record, the
change will be written to the database immediately.
The change will become effective at the port in one of the following ways:
Press [F7] while still in Maintenance operations on the record. This will tempo-
rarily disable the port, then write the change to the software running in the node.
Re-IPL the node containing the changed port.

is the hardware interface, determined by the associated Line Interface Card (LIC) and
the cable attached to the port's I/O box connector. The LP record identifies the LIC,
and only the valid interfaces will be displayed as choices in the Port record. LICs are
shown in parentheses:
