Passes the state as reported by the frame relay switch. Set DLCI

to A
UTO
for normal operation.
F
ORCE UP
This DLCI disregards the status as reported from the switch and
reports A
CTIVE
to all packet endpoints within the ATLAS 550.
F
ORCE DOWN
Reports status as D
OWN
to all packet endpoints within the ATLAS
550.

Generates a diagnostic packet to measure delay through the frame

ACKETS
Used when the ATLAS 550 is acting as a frame relay switch. Trans-
mits a diagnostic packet out the packet endpoint connected to this
DLCI, if a diagnostic packet is received on this packet endpoint.
Sublinks Example
Assume the followingsublink packet endpointis connectedto the frame re-
lay network via a full T1:
If the PVC to San Francisco needs to transmit data, it will be able to access
thenetwork atfullT1rates. If,atthe sametime,dataneedsto be transmitted
to the PVC to New York, the San Francisco and New York PVCs would
equally share theT1 tothe frame relay provider because they have thesame
QOS value.If, also atthe same time, data needed tobe transmitted totheAt-
lantaPVC, theT1would bedivided three ways:trafficto Atlantagets halfof
theT1, andtheNewYorkandSanFranciscoPVCsequallysharetheremain-
ing half of the T1, since they share the same QOS value.
