The FRAME RELAY SET-UP MENU allows the configuration of the frame relay parameters for the link. The options
displayed in this menu will depend on the Auto-Learning setting selected
Note: this menu will be displayed if this link has Frame Relay enabled in the Link Set-UP Menu.
1 - Auto-Learning
The Auto-Learning option toggles between [enabled] and [disabled] to allow this frame relay router to try to auto-learn
the LMI type as well as the configured DLCI values on the frame relay service.
When the frame relay router first starts up it will query the frame relay service to try to determine the LMI type. Once
the LMI type is determined, the PVC configurations will be known from the full status inquiry messages. If the DLCI
numbers of the PVC's on your service are determined during startup, the P1700 will automatically create a remote site
profile for each PVC. The automatically created remote site profiles will be named "LinkxDLCIyyy" where x is the
physical link number the PVC is on and yyy is the DLCI of the PVC. These automatically created remote site profiles
may be renamed for easier usage by changing the Remote Site Alias within the Edit Remote Site menu.
Default:
[enabled]
Considerations:
If during this learning process the maximum number of remote sites has been reached, the P1700 will prompt you
that there are no remote sites available. A new remote site cannot be auto-created unless one of the existing
remote sites is manually deleted. To remove a particular remote site, the PVC for that site must first be disabled
(option 8 of the Main/Configuration/WAN set-up/Remote Site/Edit Remote Site/Connection set-up menu),
then removed (option 4 of the Main/Configuration/WAN/Remote Site set-up menu). All remote sites on a link
may be cleared by toggling the enable/disable function for the link, toggling the enable/disable function for auto-
learning, or doing a soft reset.
Note: Auto-leaning with PPP Frame Relay is not compatable with some earlier model routers. In case of problems with
auto-learning, try switching to raw 1490 frame relay operation (disable PPP for the remote site connection).
