submenus display the status of each packet endpoint including the
packet endpoint name (E

), the signal-
ing role (S

cuss each of these fields.

(also see Config on page 8-6).
P
ROT
Read Security: 5
Displays the layer 2 protocol that this packet endpoint terminates. FR indi-
cates that this packet endpoint is configured for frame relay. TBOP indi-
cates that this packet endpoint is configured for Transparent Bit Oriented
Protocol (TBOP).
S
IG
R
OLE
Read Security: 5
Displays the frame relay signaling role for this packet endpoint. The
selections include O
FF
, U
NKNOWN
, N
ETWORK
, U
SER
,andB
OTH
.
O
FF
Indicates that the endpoint is configured so that it does not use signaling.
U
NKNOWN
Indicates that the endpoint is configured to auto-detect the role, but has not
yet done so.
N
ETWORK
Indicates that the endpoint is acting as the network end of a UNI link.
U
SER
Indicates that the endpoint is acting as one end of a UNI link.
B
OTH
Indicates that the endpoint is acting as one end of an NNI link.
S
IG
T
YPE
Read Security: 5
Displays the frame relay signaling type used on this packet endpoint. Selec-
tions include U
