messages are sent every EEK Timer x T391 seconds. This timer may be configured from 1 to 100
periods in duration.

Your network provider will inform you of what is proper for these parameters.

7.2.3.2. Frame Relay DLCIs

The second table provides a listing of all DLCIs available on the channel. Only the DLCI selected from
the main menu can be edited, although another DLCI can be added by following the Add another
DLCI to this channel
link.

The DLCI Number refers to the Data Link Connection Identifier. This number should be provided to
you by your provider.

The Local IP Address field defines the IP address for this logical interface.

The Netmask field displays the network address mask. The value 255.255.255.255 indicates that the
connection is point-to-point.

The Remote IP Address field defines the IP address for other side of this interface. As most WAN
links are of point-to-point type, there is only one host connected to the other end of the link and its
address is known in advance. This option is the address of the 'other end' of the link and is usually
assigned by the network administrator or Internet service provider.

The Description field attaches a description to the logical interface viewable from the network
interfaces menu.

The Delete this logical interface button removes the currently selected interface. Repetitive use of
this button on other DLCIs assigned to the channel will free the channel up.

7.2.4. Editing A Logical Interface (PPP)

Figure 7.7. Edit Logical Interface (PPP)

The Local Address, Netmask, Remote Address, and Description fields are as described in the
previous section.

Some PPP implementations exist that are unable to negotiate the LCP Magic Number feature
correctly. The Disable Magic Number field disables PPP LCP negotiation of the Magic Number
feature altogether.
