Frame Relay Configuration

This section covers the settings required for Frame Relay operation of
the MicroRouter 2250R WAN interfaces. In general, the parameters
listed here should be set for each WAN interface on which you plan to
use Frame Relay. Note that the T1 (WAN 0) interface can be running
Frame Relay, SMDS or PPP while the RS-232 interface (WAN 1) is
running PPP or Frame Relay.

Internal T1 CSU/DSU (WAN 0) Link Configuration

Required for Dedicated/Leased Line Operation

This is the only mode of operation supported via the built-in T1
CSU/DSU.

Set Frame Relay connection

CV: Use the Link Configuration: WAN 0 Dialog Box.

TB: Use configure to set the Mode keyword in the Link Config

WAN 0 section.

Suggested for Dedicated/Leased Line Operation

Dedicated line operation generally does not require additional parame-
ters for operation.

RS-232 (WAN 1) Link Configuration

Frame Relay is presently supported in the MicroRouter 2250R only via
dedicated line operation.

Set Dedicated connection

Set Frame Relay connection

CV: Use the Link Configuration: WAN 1 Dialog Box.

TB: Use configure to set the Mode and ConnectMode keywords in

the Link Config WAN 1 section.

Suggested for Dedicated/Leased Line Operation

Dedicated line operation generally does not require additional parame-
ters for operation.

Frame Relay DLCI Mappings

If you are connecting to another Compatible Systems router, this infor-
mation is not required for Frame Relay operation. Compatible Systems
