Admin Status
The options for the Admin Status are
UP
and
DN
. If
UP
, the port has been enabled and can
transmit data as long as its Operational Status is also
UP
. If set to
DN
, the port will not pass
data even, if its physical connection is good.
Speed in BPS
This option specifies the access rate for the Frame Relay or PPP line to the service provider.
This parameter is the speed of the entire connection, not an individual virtual circuit. For
example, if you have a 56 kbps line to your service provider, this field should be set to 56000.
A full T1 line would have an access rate of 1,544,000 bps, and a full E1 line would have an
access rate of 2,048,000 bps. For either T1 or E1, you can also have a fractional service with
an access rate that is a multiple of 64 kbps. Enter a value that is the same as one of the values
displayed below this field.
Note
If the port you are configuring is a physical DCE port
(i.e., DCE cable plugged into the submodule port) that
can control the access rate and clocking, always enter a
value for this field. This value will be used in
computing congestion control parameters, such as the
Committed Information Rate (CIR). If the port is a DTE,
this setting will have no effect, except for informational
purposes.
