Frame-Relay Question [7:31395]
Hello, This might be a simple/rehashed question. I appreciate any feedback from anyone who can comment on this.. If you were to order a higher guaranteed rate /port speed on an existing frame-relay connection, for example a t1 frame-relay, will there be any configurations needed on the router or CSU ? Assuming straight on Frame-Relay config. Any info is greatly appreciated.. Thanks __ Do You Yahoo!? Send FREE video emails in Yahoo!

Re: Frame-Relay Question [7:31395]
You need to config the CSU/DSU or service-mod to utilize the correct number of channels on the port, regardless of CIR. ELMI or traffic-shaping is used to shape CIR speed. SO if you orderd a full T1, but only had a 64K circuit (I hope you are using the other channels for voice or something) you would need to configure the CSU/DSU or service-mod to use all 24 channels. -- RFC 1149 Compliant.

Yes, On the CSU you will have to tell it how many channels it is using. If you currently have 256 kbps, the CSU will have 4 channels (4x64kbps=256kbps) assigned to the Frame Relay connection. If you wish to expand your connection to 384 kbps, you will need to assign 6 channels instead of 4. If the CSU is built into the Cisco router, you will use the command: service-module t1 timeslots 1-6 under the interface configuration to assign the first 6 channels. If the CSU is a stand-alone, you will need to read the manual to figure that out. On the Router you don't really have to do anything, unless you're using dynamic routing protocols that are utilizing the bandwidth in order to deside the route. If that's the case, you will need to change the bandwidth on the interface. The command to use on the interface is: bandwidth 384000 for 384kbps. If you have any problems, you can send me your current config, and I can tell you where to change what. Hth, Ole ~~~ Ole Drews Jensen Systems Network Manager CCNP, MCSE, MCP+I RWR Enterprises, Inc.

No. The CSU still runs with the T-1 configuration. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of James Sent: Wednesday, January 09, 2002 9:55 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Frame-Relay Question [7:31395] Hello, This might be a simple/rehashed question.

Only if you adding channels to a frac T1 but nothing for a CIR change. Dave James wrote: > > Hello, > > This might be a simple/rehashed question.

RE: Frame-Relay Question [7:31395]
I apologize - I did not read the question word by word. If you only make changes to the CIR, there will be no changes necessary.

RE: Frame-Relay Question [7:31395]
Ole Thanks for the info. What I was wondering is that the stated/physical speed might be let's say 128K but the guaranteed rate may be less that that. That brings me to my next question, a 128K Frame Relay mean you get Full 128K speed ? According to what I read, in frame-relay, the Telco will set your actual port speed to less that what you have ordered. They have a statement in your order sheet informing you of the guaranteed rate (which is less than what you have ordered). That is what confusing me.. --- Ole Drews Jensen wrote: > Yes, > > On the CSU you will have to tell it how many > channels it is using.
