Purpose of This PowerPoint • This PowerPoint primarily consists of the Target Indicators (TIs) of this module in CCNA version 3.1. • It was created to give instructors a PowerPoint to take and modify as their own. • This PowerPoint is: • NOT a study guide for the module final assessment. • NOT a study guide for the CCNA certification exam. • Please report any mistakes you find in this PowerPoint by using the Academy Connection Help link.
To Locate Instructional Resource Materials on Academy Connection: • Go to the Community FTP Center to locate materials created by the instructor community • Go to the Tools section • Go to the Alpha Preview section • Go to the Community link under Resources • See the resources available on the Class home page for classes you are offering • Search http://www.cisco.com • Contact your parent academy!
Local Significance of DLCIs The data-link connection identifier (DLCI) is stored in the Address field of every frame transmitted.
Terminology • The connection through the Frame Relay network between two DTEs is called a virtual circuit (VC). • Virtual circuits may be established dynamically by sending signaling messages to the network. In this case they are called switched virtual circuits (SVCs). • Virtual circuits can be configured manually through the network. In this case they are called permanent virtual circuits (PVCs).

Data Link Control Identifier • The 10-bit DLCI associates the frame with its virtual circuit • It is of local significance only - a frame will not generally be delivered with the same DLCI with which it started • Some DLCI’s are reserved
Local Management Interface (LMI) • Three types of LMIs are supported by Cisco routers: • Cisco — The original LMI extensions • Ansi — Corresponding to the ANSI standard T1.617 Annex D • q933a — Corresponding to the ITU standard Q933 Annex A

Reachability Issues with Routing Updates in NBMA By default, a Frame Relay network provides nonbroadcast multiaccess (NBMA) connectivity between remote sites. An NBMA environment is treated like other multiaccess media environments, where all the routers are on the same subnet.
Verifying Frame Relay • The show interfaces command displays information regarding the encapsulation and Layer 1 and Layer 2 status. It also displays information about the following: • The LMI type • The LMI DLCI • The Frame Relay data terminal equipment/data circuit-terminating equipment (DTE/DCE) type
