To change to DCE, plug the jumper board into the connector receptacle pin rows closest to the FRI
faceplate (see Figure 9-1). The rows for DCE mode are 1, 2, 4, and 5.
Step 3 Insert the FRI card and gently slide it in all the way to the rear of the slot.
Note The FRI card should slide in easily into the slot. Investigate any binding. Do not use force.
Step 4 Insert and tighten the mounting screws.

Setting Up Frame Relay Ports and Connections (FRM)
This section outlines the steps for setting up and deleting FR ports, adding and configuring connections.
As the steps show, some commands apply to channelized connections (T1, E1, or J1) but not to
unchannelized connections (V.35 or X.21). Use either the IGX control terminal or a Cisco WAN
Manager workstation to execute the commands. For parameters and other details on the commands, refer
to the Cisco WAN Switching Command Reference.
Step 1 If not already done, activate the applicable lines with the upln command.
Step 2 Use the vt command to gain access to other nodes.
Step 3 Use the dspcds command to verify that all nodes have the correct FRI back card and FRM front card.
The dspcds output shows the slot number of each card and any mismatch between the front card and the
back card. Note the slot number of each FRM or UFM for subsequent commands.
