Configuring Async Ports

12-17

Redirect on Busy

will redirect calls (if 

Y

) according to the Redirection Addresses if the current sub-

scriber has no LCNs available.

Redirect on Out of Order

will redirects calls (if 

Y

) according to the Redirection Addresses if the  if the current 

subscriber’s port is out of order.

Connection Priority

prioritizes intra-nodal traffic; the higher the number, the higher the priority. (This pri-

ority has no effect on traffic exiting a node.)

Priorities are configured on all logical interfaces that use a physical frame relay port. 

The device processor in the node uses these priorities to help determine the order in 

which it will process protocols.

When configuring priorities, be careful to consider the types of 

traffic being routed on other connections in the node.

1st, 2nd,etc. Path Configured

includes or excludes the associated RLP/port as a routing path to the subscriber 

device. At least one path must be specified.

RLP

is the RLP containing the port specified for the next parameter.

Port

identify the port(s) that make up the routing path(s).

Redirection Address 0,1,etc.

are up to five subscribers that will be called according to the specified redirection 

option. The FRX4000/6000 can redirect an X.25 call to an alternate subscriber if the 

original subscriber cannot be reached. (See "

Redirect on Busy

" and "

Redirect on Out of 

Order

.")

The FRX4000/6000 will call each address in the list until one is reached. If 

Systematic 

Redirection

 is enabled, the FRX4000/6000 will not call the original called subscriber, 

but will start immediately with the first subscriber in the redirection list.

Configuring Abbreviated Addresses

The Abbreviated Address operation allows you to assign a short name or mnemonic 

to be used in place of the subscriber ID when making X.25 calls from a terminal con-

nected to an FRX4000/6000 async PAD port.

To display a list of existing abbreviated addresses and their associated subscriber IDs, 

press

 [C]

 at the Connections and Routing Paths Configuration Menu (or 

[A], [D], [C]

from the Main Menu).
