Selecting a Frame Relay Discovery Mode
When a Frame Relay Discovery Mode is active, the FrameSaver unit “discovers”
network DLCIs from the network LMI status response message. It configures a
network DLCI and a user data port DLCI, and automatically connects them to
create a PVC.

Frame Relay Discovery Mode
Automatically configured network DLCIs are multiplexed, and each automatically
configured port DLCI carries the same DLCI Number as its corresponding network
DLCI. These are the same DLCI numbers that would have been available had the
FrameSaver unit not been inserted in the link, between your equipment and the
network.
NOTE:
A local Management PVC (e.g., the PVC between the router and the
FrameSaver unit’s user data port) must be configured manually.
The following will occur when a Frame Relay Discovery Mode is selected:
