unbound from their default ports and waits in the dial pool for an 
incoming call. When a call is received, the dynamic path that answers is 
assigned to a virtual port, which is standing by with the appropriate 
configuration information for the calling network. Because not all sites 
using a dial pool call the central site at the same time, it is possible to 
share a small group of paths with a larger group of sites. Each site that 
can potentially call into the dial pool has its own virtual port defined, so 
there are usually more virtual ports configured for the dial pool than 
dynamic paths assigned to it.
Parent Ports for Frame Relay and X.25
When you configure an X.25, or Frame Relay virtual port, it inherits the 
attributes of the path over which it is defined. It also inherits some of the 
attributes of its parent port. 
For PPP dial virtual ports, no parent port exists because the path was 
unbound from its port and placed into the dynamic dial path pool. 
Unlike Frame Relay and X.25 virtual ports, which are always associated 
with a particular path, PPP virtual ports can potentially use any path in the 
dynamic dial path pool. PPP virtual ports also can be used with dial-up 
related parameters.
For example, if you create a Frame Relay or X.25 virtual port 
associated with a wide area port, the virtual port inherits port attributes 
from the following sources:
Default and configured values of PORT Service parameters specified 
for a wide area port, with the exception PORT Service parameters that 
are not related to X.25 and Frame Relay virtual ports.
Default and configured values of parameters from all other services 
specified for a wide area port.
To configure a virtual port, you must specify the virtual port and not the 
parent port. For example, if you are using the SETDefault !<port> -BCN 
CONTrol = Enabled syntax, you must specify the virtual port number 
instead of the parent port number for <port>. For complete information 
on the numbering convention of virtual ports, see “Path and Port 
Numbering” on page 69.
