Management PVC
Minimally, enter the following options:

— Primary Link for this Management PVC (the user data port)
— Primary DLCI (i.e., the data port DLCI)
4. Save the configuration.
Automatic Configuration
The FrameSaver unit provides several automatic configuration features. Frame Relay
Discovery and configuration is one of these features.

Auto-Configuration
The default discovery mode is 1MPort. In this mode, for each DLCI discovered on the
network, the unit creates a network interface DLCI containing two EDLCIs (embedded
DLCIs – one for Port-1 data and the other for management), a Port-1 DLCI with the
same number, and a management PVC, then cross-connects them.
NOTE:
When auto-configuration creates a multiplexed DLCI, but a standard DLCI is
needed, change the DLCI to Standard from the network DLCI Records screen:

Other modes can be selected. See Setting Up Automatic Configuration in the
FrameSaver SLV Configuration Reference for information about other modes and how
the Frame Relay Discovery Mode can be changed.
No automatic configuration occurs until the network cable is connected. If you do not
want management links configured or automatic configuration, change the default
setting for the Frame Relay Discovery feature.
