In CompatiView you must set a global parameter and a port-specific parameter.
Suggested for DECnet
Setting the parameters above should be adequate for most installations.
Frame Relay Configuration
This section covers the settings required for Frame Relay operation of the V.35 WAN inter-
faces. In general, the parameters listed here should be set for each WAN interface on which
you plan to use Frame Relay. Note that some WAN interfaces can be running Frame Relay
while others are running PPP.
The V.35 interfaces can only be run synchronously, at rates up to 2 Mb per second.
WAN Link Configuration
Required for Dedicated Line Operation
Frame Relay is presently supported in the Octal V.35-Quad 10/100 RIOP only via synchronous
dedicated line operation.

CV: Use the Link Configuration: WAN Dialog Box.
TB: Use configure and then set the Mode and ConnectMode keywords in the Link Config
WAN 0 (and/or any other port numbers you wish to configure) section.
Suggested for Dedicated Line Operation
Dedicated line operation generally does not require additional parameters for operation.
Frame Relay DLCI Mappings
If you are connecting to another Compatible Systems router, this information is not required
for Frame Relay operation. Compatible Systems uses IARP (Inverse Address Resolution
Protocol) to dynamically generate this information. To connect to other vendors’ routers
which do not support IARP, you must provide DLCI-to-protocol mapping information.
v Note: Many Internet Service Providers (ISP’s) do not support IARP as a default. If your
WAN interface will be connected to an ISP via Frame Relay, check with your ISP technical
staff on whether or not you must manually enter DLCI information.
CV: Use the DLCI Mapping Database (under WAN/Link Configuration/DLCI button).
TB: Use configure and set the DLCI keyword in the Frame Relay WAN 0 (and/or any other
port numbers you wish to configure) section.
