Scenario details: Create the frame-relay network interface description

Use the following command to configure the iSeries™ system connection to the frame-relay network:

CRTNWIFRN  NWID(FRMRLY) RSRCNAME(LIN031) INTERFACE(*RS449V36)1 +
           LINESPEED(1536000)1 LMIMODE(*TE)2 +
           TEXT('T1 link to frame-relay network')
Notes:
  1. Values that you specify for the INTERFACE and LINESPEED parameters must match the frame-relay services that the network provider supplies.
  2. Local management interface (LMI) mode is *TE, which means the iSeries system exchanges information with the network on data link connection identifier 0 (DLCI 0). If the network does not support the LMI on DLCI 0, then you must configure the LMIMODE parameter to *NONE. The network provider must then configure the frame-relay switch not to perform LMI functions on the line.
