settings. Be sure to enable the Interface Status option for these interfaces.
(The network interface is already enabled on a FrameSaver SLV NAM.)

Port Status option for the port.

Time Slot Assignment
FrameSaver SLV NAM frame relay (network) time slots are discovered automatically
when Time Slot Discovery is enabled (the default setting) on the Frame Relay
Network 1 Assignments screen. This feature can be disabled if you want to manually
configure time slots.
See
