Hi all,
The DLCI's are still of local significance as I understand it.
When the company I belong to provide links we might use 17, 18,19 & 20 at the core
site on line C12345. At remote end 1 we would most likely use DCLI 17 as the first
instance on each remote site. For example, remote site 1 could be R11111 on DLCI 17,
remote site 2 could be RG23419 on DCLI. You could for some reason want to go from
remote sites 1 -> 2 so here you could use R11111 DLCI 18 -> RG23419 DCLI 18.
Basically I like to think of it as a physical line from the frame switch to your site
R11111 the a channel (permanent in most cases) PVC relates to the DCLI eg 17.
Once into the frame switch all the rules change as it could pass down a very different
link on a different PVC between switches.
Frome end to end it could look like
C123245 DLCI 20 -> sw S1234 DLCI 25 -> sw S4567 DLCI 50 -> sw R44444 DLCI 17.
You as a client would only know about C12345 DLCI 20 and R44444 17.
Just a thought I hope helps.
