Configuring Cards and Protocols
The circuitry that supports the serial I/O ports in a Netlink FRX6000 or Frame Relay
Module (FRM) resides on one or (FRX6000 only) more RISC-based line processor
cards (RLPs), and on one or two four-port Line Interface Cards (LICs) mounted on
each RLP. (See Figure 4-4 on page 4-7.) In an FRX4000, the functionality of one RLP
and four serial ports is built into the system board (motherboard), and four more serial
ports can be added by installing an LIC.

The FRX6000 uses the Line Processor file to identify installed RLPs. FRX4000,
FRX6000, and FRM use the file to identify the type(s) of installed LIC(s), amount of
installed memory, and installed routing and access protocols.

FRX4000, FRX6000, and FRM use the LAN Card file to identify installed LAN
cards/interfaces. FRX6000 is shipped with one LAN card (Ethernet or Token Ring,
depending on the model purchased), FRM contains one Ethernet card, and FRX4000
is shipped with an integral LAN interface (Ethernet or Token Ring, depending on the
model purchased).
