» Configuration/Frame Relay

Frame Relay is a connection-oriented service requiring circuits to be

configured by your carrier to establish a physical link between two or

more locations. Multiple virtual circuits (which appear as virtual

point-to-point links) can be run through the same physical connection.

There are two types of virtual circuits supported in Frame Relay: Per-

manent Virtual Circuits (PVC) and Switched Virtual Circuit (SVC).

PVCs are like dedicated point-to-point private lines. Since the physi-

cal connection is always there in the form of a leased line, call setup

and tear down is done by a carrier via a network management system.

SVCs require setup and tear down and are generally not available

from Frame Relay carriers. Virtually all Frame Relay communications

is done using PVCs. The Express L768 supports PVCs only.

A number called the Data Link Connection Identifier (DLCI) identifies

each virtual circuit within a shared physical channel.

Figure 3-8 shows the Frame Relay menu.
