Virtual circuits can be divided into permanent virtual circuit and switching virtual
circuit, according to their different configuration method. Virtual circuits
configured manually are called Permanent virtual circuits (PVCs), and those created
by protocol negotiation are called switching virtual circuits (SVCs), which are
automatically created and deleted by Inverse ARP protocol. At present, the most
frequently used in Frame Relay is the permanent virtual circuit mode, i.e., manually
configured virtual circuit.
In the permanent virtual circuit mode, test the availability of the virtual circuit,
which is accomplished by the local management interface (LMI) protocol. The
3Com Router supports three LMI protocols: LMI complying with ITU-T Q.933
Appendix A, LMI complying with ANSI T1.617 Appendix D and non-standard LMI.
Their basic function is: DTE sends one Status Enquiry packet to query the virtual
circuit status at certain interval, after the DCE receives the packet, it will
immediately use the Status packet to inform DTE the status of all the virtual
circuits on current interface.
The status of Permanent virtual circuits (PVCs) on DTE is completely determined by
DCE. And the network determines the status of Permanent virtual circuits (PVCs)
of DCE. In case that the two network devices are directly connected, the
equipment administrator sets the virtual circuit status of DCE. In The 3Com Router,
the quantity and status of the virtual circuits are set at the time when address
mapping is set (with the
fr map
command). They can also be configured with the
Frame Relay local virtual circuit configuration command (
fr dlci
command).
