The in-band Frame Relay Management Channel WAN address is defined by the DLCI
(Data Link Connection Identifier). The WAN DLCI can be configured for a Dedicated
PVC, or as a Tunneled channel within a Payload PVC. During initial installation the
WAN DLCI can be set via the unit's rear panel Configuration DIP Switches, Local
Console Port or Dial-In Console Port. Thereafter the DLCI can also be changed via in-
band management access.
NetPath 100 has special features for Network Service Providers (NSPs) who require
management access to the FSU to be isolated from the payload data. This isolated ac-
cess is provided either by NetPath 100's dedicated network-facing management PVC
as shown in Figure 2-1 or by the Tunneled management channel on a network-facing
Payload PVC as shown in Figure 2-7.

Figure 2-7 Tunneled Management

Tunnel management is accomplished by a NetPath HUB (NetPath 1xx class unit) lo-
cated at a site which supports up to 48 PVCs connected to NetPath units located at re-
mote (spoke) sites. The HUB unit performs the routing and encapsulation function for
management channel messages going to and from the remote units. The HUB is con-
nected to the network management systems by a separate, dedicated group manage-
ment PVC.
