is the frequency with which the user device will request a Full Status Report, which
shows frame relay PVC status and Keep Alive Sequence information. (Keep Alive
Sequencing is the continuous exchange of sequence numbers between the network and
user device, verifying to each that the link between them is up.)
Each exchange of one enquiry and one message is a cycle, and the number specified
for this parameter is the number of cycles between Full Status Reports.
If this port is configured as logical DCE, status enquiries will be initiated at the remote
end, and the local node will respond with PVC status information. If this port is logical
DTE, status enquiries will be initiated at this node.
