3000-Series Router/Multiport Dat a/V oice/Fax Frame Relay Access Device Chapter 4 - MultiFRAD Software.
28 MultiFRAD 3000-Series User Guide Introduction This chapter describes the MultiFRAD 3000 software from an applications approach in how the configuration can be changed with recommendations on the impact of that change.
29 Chapter 4 - MultiFRAD Software Setup Menu The MultiFRAD 3000-Series Setup menu consists of 12 buttons in which you can point and click, an Events window in the middle of the menu, and a status bar at the bottom of the menu.
30 MultiFRAD 3000-Series User Guide IP Setup The IP Setup dialog box allows you change the IP routing capabilities, add or delete logical W ANs, enable the DHCP relay agent, assign DNS address, and define default and static routes. The initial routing capabilities were established during the software installation.
31 Chapter 4 - MultiFRAD Software T o add logical W AN in a frame relay configuration, click on the Add(+) button and the next W AN number is displayed in the List of Logical W ANs window on the left side of the WAN dialog box. T o delete the last logical W AN assigned, click on the Delete (-) button.
32 MultiFRAD 3000-Series User Guide IPX Setup The IPX Setup dialog box controls the four frame types, the W AN ports setup, and the advanced tab enables IPX routing, auto learn of Ethernet network numbers, and the distributed name of the MultiFRAD. The RIP and SAP default timers should not have to be changed for most applications.
33 Chapter 4 - MultiFRAD Software The IPX W AN network number has to be the same on both ends of the link and must be unique throughout the internetwork. If the W AN port is configured in a point to point configuration, both W AN network numbers have to be the same and unique.
34 MultiFRAD 3000-Series User Guide Spanning T ree Setup The Spanning T ree Setup dialog box controls transparent bridging when the Bridging option is enabled or if there are any loops or redundant links in the internetwork, then Spanning T ree Algorithm option must be used.
35 Chapter 4 - MultiFRAD Software Statistics The Statistics dialog box allows you to view statistics on the major events of the MultiFRAD. The Statistic dialog box changes depending on the way the W AN port is configured.
36 MultiFRAD 3000-Series User Guide IP Statistics IP is a connection-less network protocol that resides in the network layer of a conventional OSI layered model (for more information on this model, refer to Appendix C). Depending on what is going on at the application layer , IP will typically use one of two transport layer protocols.
37 Chapter 4 - MultiFRAD Software IPX Port Statistics The IPX Port Statistics dialog box displays information pertaining to the IPX Port, for example, the frame type used or the number of packets transmitted/received. IPX is a network layer protocol that is usually associated with Novell Netware TM networks.
38 MultiFRAD 3000-Series User Guide STP (Spanning T ree) Port Statistics The STP (Spanning T ree) Port Statistics dialog box displays information regarding the selected STP port, for example, the number of frames discarded or forwarded.
39 Chapter 4 - MultiFRAD Software SNMP Statistics The SNMP Statistics dialog box provides statistical information on Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). SNMP is an application layer protocol that facilitates the exchange of management information between network devices.
40 MultiFRAD 3000-Series User Guide W AN Statistics The W AN Statistics dialog box provides statistical information regarding the MultiFRAD’ s W AN port, including the number of packets transmitted/received, and total bytes transmitted/received.
41 Chapter 4 - MultiFRAD Software PPP Statistics The PPP Statistics dialog box provides statistical information related to Point-to-Pint Protocol (PPP).
42 MultiFRAD 3000-Series User Guide Data Port Statistics The Data Port Statistics dialog box displays statistical information, such as bytes or blocks received/ transmitted, for the various data ports. This window shows the statistics for all data channels.
43 Chapter 4 - MultiFRAD Software Frame Relay Statistics The Frame Relay Management Statistics dialog box can be a useful tool for troubleshooting MultiFRAD installations and monitoring the performance of active links, and determining if the MultiFRAD is talking to the provider ’ s switch.
44 MultiFRAD 3000-Series User Guide The DLCI Statistics dialog box shows the individual DLCI status and statistics. This information can be helpful in determining if the DLCI is active, if it is going up and down, and if the MultiFRAD is experiencing frame relay network congestion (FECN/BECN).
45 Chapter 4 - MultiFRAD Software W AN Port Setup The W AN Port Setup dialog box controls how the port is configured (i.e., frame relay or point-to- point). If the W AN port is configured for frame relay , then the mode of the port is synchronous. If the port is configured for point-to-point, then the mode can be either synchronous or asynchronous.
46 MultiFRAD 3000-Series User Guide Point to Point Setup The Point to Point Setup dialog box controls the W AN port protocol, dial on demand, and remote port setup. The W AN port protocol can be either Point to Point Protocol (PPP) or Serial Line Internet Protocol (SLIP).
47 Chapter 4 - MultiFRAD Software Frame Relay Setup The Frame Relay dialog box displays the CIR Measurement Interval in milliseconds, the Management T ype and details of that management type, and the number of DLCI’s that are active. The MultiFRAD can detect DLCIs and the Management T ype when you are connected to an active frame relay service.
48 MultiFRAD 3000-Series User Guide If you click on the DLCI button on the right side of the dialog box, the Frame Relay DLCI dialog box is displayed. If you have connected to a frame relay service, this dialog box should display your current DLCI numbers automatically .
49 Chapter 4 - MultiFRAD Software When a DLCI has just been detected, or if you have just made a new DLCI, it has not yet been mapped to a protocol address or a data port. The default Congestion Management, mode, CIR, and Be are displayed. Y ou should verify these default setting with how your new DLCI is provisioned by you service provider .
50 MultiFRAD 3000-Series User Guide T o map a new DLCI (e.g., 17) to a protocol, return to the Main Menu and then click on the protocol stack that you are using. In the lower left part of the protocol stack dialog box a list of Logical W ANs is displayed.
51 Chapter 4 - MultiFRAD Software We now have W AN IP address 200.2.1 1.1 from the IP protocol stack mapped to DLCI 17. Let’ s say we also want to map a data channel to DLCI 17. The data ports that are already mapped to other DLCIs are grayed out. In our example, lets map data port 3to DLCI 17.
52 MultiFRAD 3000-Series User Guide Data Port Configuration The Data Port Configuration dialog box allows you to change the parameters of the data transferred between the data device and the MultiFRAD. The MultiFRAD can transfer data between the data device and MultiFRAD in either a synchronous or asynchronous mode.
