Bind The Physical Interface To The Logical Interface - HP ProCurve Secure 7000dl Series Basic Management And Configuration Manual

Configuring the Data Link Layer Protocol for E1, T1, and Serial Interfaces
Configuring the Logical Interface
Replace <excessive burst value> with a burst rate, expressed in bits. You can
set a B between 0 and 4,294,967,294 bps.
e
For example, you might enter:
ProCurve(config-fr 1.1)# frame-relay be 64000
Discard Eligible (DE) Bit. After a PVC reaches its CIR, the Frame Relay
switch marks each packet with a Discard Eligible (DE) bit. For example, if a
PVC's B is 1.0 Mb, its B is 1.5 Mb, and it is transmitting traffic at full capacity,
c e
then Frame Relay switch will set the DE bit on the last 500 kilobytes of packets.
If the Frame Relay network becomes congested, the Frame Relay switch first
drops the packets that are marked with the DE bit.

Bind the Physical Interface to the Logical Interface

On the ProCurve Secure Router, you must bind the physical interface to the
logical interface so that the router knows which Data Link Layer protocol to
use for that WAN connection. When you bind a physical interface to a logical
interface, the two are considered a single interface bind group.
You bind the physical interface to the Frame Relay interface, not to individual
subinterfaces. In this way, various PVCs can use any available bandwidth on
the physical connection to burst data past their CIR. You can enter the bind
command from the global configuration mode context or from the Frame
Relay interface configuration mode context:
Syntax: bind <bind number> <physical interface> <slot>/<port> [<tdm-group
number>] <logical interface> <logical interface number>
The <bind number> is globally significant. That is, each bind command you
enter on the router must have a unique bind number.
Replace <physical interface> with E1, T1, or serial. The <slot> and <port>
pinpoint this interface's location on the ProCurve Secure Router and distin-
guish multiple lines of the same type from each other.
If you are binding the Frame Relay interface to an E1 or T1 interface, replace
<tdm-group number> with the TDM group you created when you configured
that interface. If you are binding the serial interface to the Frame Relay
interface, you do not include this option.
In this instance, the <logical interface> is Frame Relay, and the <logical
interface number> refers to the number you assigned to this interface.
