RE: Nortel and Cisco

Just a question:

I remember somewhere that the LMI type will determine whether the DLCI
information is sent from the switch or you have to configure it your self.

Do you see the dlci on the VXR or the AN. Which side is having the trouble
seeing the dlci.

Is this a new circuit or existing?

Some ideas:
I am assuming that you are using ANSI in both locations. You could try LMI on
the AN and CISCO on the other this is assuming that the circuit is setup for
LMI/Cisco and not ANSI. You can have the carrier switch LMI types to see if that
helps.

In addition:
        debug LMI on the cisco might help but becareful if it's a production
router and that you don't hog the cpu.

Agreed that some more stat information is needed.
                sh frame-relay pvc
                sh frame-relay lmi
                sh log

the bay should have someinformation in the bcc console similar to Cisco.
                show ? and look for the interface and frame-relay stuff.
