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
