The following table describes the value ranges and default values of related
parameters of the Frame Relay LMI protocol
Table 278
D
escriptions of related parameters of Frame Relay LMI protocol
In which, the related parameters at the DTE side include:
■
T391DTE: The interval of the link integrity polling for the equipment at the DTE
side
■
N391DTE: DTE equipment will send a status enquiry message at a certain
interval (which is determined by T391). The status enquiry messages are divided
into two types: link integrity authentication messages and link status enquiry
messages. The parameter N391DTE is used to define the sending ratio of these
two types of messages. That is:
Number of link integrity authentication messages: Number of link status enquiry
messages = N391-1: 1
■
N392DTE: The threshold for the errors that can occur in the total number of
observed events at the DTE side.
■
N393DTE: The total number of observed events at the DTE side.
DTE equipment will send a status enquiry message at a certain interval (which is
determined by T391) to inquire the link status. Upon receiving that message, the
DCE equipment sends the status response message promptly. If the DTE
equipment does not receive the response in the specified time, the error will be
recorded. If the number of errors exceeds the threshold, the DTE equipment will
regard the physical path and all the virtual circuits as unusable. The parameters
N392 and N393 together define the “error threshold”. That is, if the number of
errors in the N393 status enquiry messages sent by the DTE equipment reaches
