LOCAL MANAGEMENT INTERFACE (LMI)
The LMI is a set of enhancements to the basic FR specification. It provides a
number of features for managing complex networks. LMI virtual circuit status
messages provide communication and synchronization between FR DTE and
DCE devices. These messages are used to periodically report on the status of the
PVCs. This prevents data from being sent into black holes.
T
O CONFIGURE LMI TYPE
Enter this command in the Interface Configuration mode.
Note: LMI Autosense is activated by default as the system acts as a DTE. The LMI
autosense will be activated when the physical interface is up and LMI type is not
configured on that interface.
E
XAMPLE
The following example sets the LMI to ANSI standard:
ALU(config-if Serial0/0:0)# frame-relay lmi-type ansi
The following example sets the LMI-type to its default, i.e., auto-sense:
ALU(config-if Serial0/0:0)# no frame-relay lmi-type
Command (in ICM) Description
frame-relay lmi-type
{ansi|q933a}
This command is used to set the LMI
type to either ANSI or Q933A.
no frame-relay lmi-type The “no” command sets the LMI type to
its default value.
The default LMI type is auto-sense.
