To be anal retentive about it, DLCI's are not locally significant because
there might be more than one per pvc.
There are only 10 bits in the DLCI field, meaning you can have a max of
1023. This fact alone would indicate the difficulty of having globally
significant numbers. ;->
One may request specific DLCI's from the provider. If you don't, the carrier
will out of habit just assign beginning at 16. But in fact many net managers
request specific numbers based on their design plan.

Subject: Two DLCI numbers?
Hi all
While I was reading a cisco book, I came across the
fact that DLCI number has only local significance
because there might be more than one DLCI number
associated with one pvc.
Why would any pve in frame relay network have two DLCI
numbers?
I know that DLCI number is given by frame relay
service provider.
Can someone explain this?
Thanks in adv.
