Deleting Ports and Virtual Circuits

You can delete a

WSX

port or virtual circuit. When you delete a port or virtual circuit all

configuration parameters revert back to default settings. You can use the

frdelete

command to

delete:

• a single virtual circuit, or

• a port and all of its associated virtual circuits

The

frdelete

command always requires you to indicate at least a slot and port number. You

cannot, for example, enter

frdelete

along with no slot and port parameters.

Deleting a Virtual Circuit

You can delete a single virtual circuit as long as you know its

DLCI

number and the

WSX

port

where it exists. Deleting a virtual circuit resets the configuration parameters on that circuit to
configuration and bridging defaults. By default, a virtual circuit is assigned to Group 1.

Virtual circuits are also not actually “deleted” when you use

frdelete

. The Frame Relay

network stills sees them as active or inactive. If the virtual circuit was configured (manage-
ment circuit or a circuit configured through

frmodify

), then the database record for the circuit

is deleted; the VC is still present as long as it was present before you deleted it. If the virtual
circuit is learned (through status updates from the Frame Relay network), then the database
record for the circuit is deleted, but the circuit is still present.

To delete a virtual circuit, enter the following command

frdelete <slot>/<port>/<DLCI>

where

<slot>

is the Omni Switch/Router slot number for the

WSX

board,

<port>

is the port to

which the virtual circuit maps, and

<DLCI>

is the identification number for the virtual circuit.

For example, if you wanted to delete virtual circuit 32 on Port 1 of the

WSX

board in slot 2,

then would enter:

frdelete 2/1/32

or

frd 2/1/32

This system returns the following prompt to confirm the deletion:

This will delete Slot 2, Port 1, DLCI 32. Continue? {(Y)es, (N)o} (N)

Enter a

Y

to confirm the deletion or press

<Enter>

to cancel the deletion.
