Configuring Frame Relay
Defining Frame Relay link operations
MAX 6000/3000 Network Configuration Guide Preliminary January 4, 2001 5-5
The Ethernet > Frame Relay > Frame Relay profile includes the following parameters that
define the name of the Frame Relay profile and make it available for use, the type of call
connection, and the type of frame relay for the switch:
Dialing, billing and signaling parameters
The next set of parameters in Ethernet > Frame Relay > Frame Relay profile define the types
of outbound calls the MAX makes, the number used to dial out this connection, telephone
billing number, the signaling value the PRI uses when placing a call and a dialing prefix for
PRI calling, and a string for use in the transit network IE:
Parameter Specifies
Name Name of the Frame Relay profile to use for forwarding this link on the
Frame Relay network. The name must be unique and cannot exceed 15
characters.
Active A profile, making it available for use. A dash appears before each
deactivated profile.
Call Type Type of connection, such as switched, or nailed. You can set the Call
Type parameter to specify the type of connection between the local
and remote codecs.
FR Type You can set the FR Type parameter to NNI (for an NNI interface to the
switch), DCE (for a UNI-DCE interface), or DTE (for a UNI-DTE
interface).
Nailed Grp Assigns those channels to the link represented by the profile. Only one
active link can be assigned to use a particular group number.
Data Svc A data service provided over a WAN line and is characterized by the
unit measure of its bandwidth. A data service can transmit either data
or digitized voice. In a Call profile, Connection profile, X.25, or
Frame Relay profile, Data Svc specifies the type of data service the
link uses. In a Dial Plan profile, Data Svc specifies the data service
associated with the number the MAX dials under the extended dial
plan.
Parameter Specifies
PRI # Type Outbound calls made by the MAX on PRI lines so that the switch can
properly interpret the phone number dialed. Ask your PRI provider for
details on when to use each of the following settings. This parameter
specifies the TypeOfNumber field in the called party’s information
element.
Dial # Number used to dial out this connection. It can contain up to 24
characters, which may include a dialing prefix that directs the
connection to use a trunk group or dial plan; for example: 6-1-212-555-
1212.
Bill # A telephone number to be used for billing purposes. If a number is
specified, it is used either as a billing suffix or the calling party number.
For robbed-bit lines, the MAX uses the billing-number as a suffix that
is appended to each phone number it dials for the call.
