RE: don't know why the link is lost?? [7:3562]
I've sometimes seen Frame Relay PVC's up and active, but not working. These are generally switch or trunk line issues within the provider's frame relay network. (There are esoteric LMI issues that can impact the provider, as well as the usual FR switch and trunk circuit problems; the new Annex A is intended to help with them.) The local CO techs usually can only troubleshoot the local loop. Voila, they test the local loop clean, the issue in the network is cleared by a frame relay techie (or all by itself) in the meantime, and the CO tech thinks you're nuts for opening the ticket in the first place. BTW, been lurking for a while. Great list. doctorcisco Relax, it may not be your configurations or your equipment. It's happened to me several times with frame-relay lines in Alabama (don't laugh, much). The interface shows line up, protocol up, but the frame relay provider was temporarily pointing me to the wrong destination in the frame relay cloud. So yes the line was working but I couldn't talk to the other end - because the other end has an IP unknown to me, and I have an IP unknown to it. So our frame-relay maps don't work even though layers 1 2 are up. And sure enough, after the provider has received the trouble ticket and about an hour or two has gone by, they call to say Try it again, Missy. There isn't anything wrong with the line. I checked with the CO support engineers. And so I ping, by gum it works. Amazing. Those CO engineers will never admit to anything. But I do wish they'd pull their pants up. Butt cracks just don't inspire technical confidence like they used to. - susan mc. -Original Message- From: Sim, CT (Chee Tong) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, May 08, 2001 1:57 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: don't know why the link is lost??
