LP Parameters in an FRX6000

The size of each protocol and the amount of RLP memory determine the combinations
of protocols that can be configured on an RLP. (See explanation.)

LP Type
Cannot be changed if the RLP is installed. If it is not installed, the value changes each

If you replace an LP or Line Interface Card with one of a dif-
ferent type, any related port records will have some invalid
values. Be sure to change them as needed.

changed.
Protocol
specifies which protocols will run on the RLP. When a new node is started up, X.25
will be loaded onto every RLP, and a software function called CONFIG will be loaded
onto the lowest-numbered RLP in the node. When you configure a new record, X.25
(and possibly CONFIG) will already be displayed as installed. For each remaining
protocol, the available choices will be those protocols not already specified that will
fit on the RLP. (If you create a new record later for a new RLP, X.25 will be the only
available choice for Protocol 1.)
