Setting Configuration Parameters

When you plug in a

WSX

board it is automatically configured with default settings. The WSX

board will default the WAN port protocol to frame relay for WSX serial ports, T1 and E1 ports.
Commands generic to the WSX module can be found in Chapter 49.

By default the WSX frame relay software uses

ANSI T1.617

Annex D for the Data Link Control

Management Interface (

DLCMI

) and uses a Committed Information Rate (

CIR

) of 0. In addi-

tion, the access rate defaults to 64 Kbps for RS-232 cables and to 2 Mbps for all other cable
types. You can change these settings as well as several other settings with the

frmodify

command.

You have a choice of modifying parameters at the port or

DLCI

(virtual circuit) level. You

receive different configuration choices depending upon which level you choose. The two
sections below describe both ways to use the

frmodify

command.

Modifying a Port

To modify a port, enter the following command

frmodify <slot>/<port>

where

<slot>

is the slot number where the

WSX

board is located, and

<port>

is the port

number on the

WSX

board that you want to modify. For example, if you wanted to modify

port number 1 on the WSX board in switch slot 3, you would enter

frmodify 3/1

or

frm 3/1
