1.1 Introduction The Multi-Tech Systems MultiFRAD™ 100-Series, Model number FR111, is a one-port Frame Relay Access Device (FRAD) with 56K DSU that encapsulates non-packetized data from a serial device into frame relay frames and is responsible for framing that data with header and trailer information prior to transmission to a frame relay network. The Multi- FRAD allows a non-frame relay device to connect to a common carrier frame relay network service or private frame relay network. The acce

1.2 About This Manual This manual describes the MultiFRAD, and tells you how to install and configure the unit. The information contained in each chapter is as follows: Chapter 1 - Introduction and Description Chapter 1 introduces the MultiFRAD 100-Series. A typical application is presented with a discussion on ordering a frame relay line and how to configure a MultiFRAD. A list of relevant specifications are provided at the end of the chapter.

Chapter 6 - ASCII Terminal Menu System Chapter 6 provides a description of the ASCII terminal menu system. The ASCII terminal menu system is used when a dumb terminal is connected to the data port. These menus allow you to configure the data port and trunk, view statistics, reset the unit, and enable diagnos- tics. Chapter 7 - Service, Warranty and Tech Support Chapter 5 provides instructions on getting service for your MultiFRAD at the factory, a statement of the limited warranty, information

1.3 A Typical Application A typical application for a MultiFRAD 100-Series is connecting a single non-frame relay device to a frame relay network. The MultiFRAD 100- Series is usually used at a remote site where a single DLCI and a single device needs to be connected to a frame relay network. A MultiFRAD 100-Series can connect any existing synchronous or asynchronous non-frame relay device to a frame relay network. MultiMux Trunk Data LAN 1 R BUFFER F L R T A INTERNAL LINK DEVICE N A

your capability to present data to the local telephone switch. Your capability to present data is determined by the internal DSU (Data Service Unit) that can transfer digital data at a maximum rate of 56,000 bits-per-second to the network. A general rule of thumb in this scenario is to assign a CIR of 32K bps and an excess burst rate (Be) of 24K bps. The sum of the CIR and Be can not exceed your capability to present data to the network. Finally during subscription, the management type is def

length, parity, stop bits, and flow control. The Async Data Port Configu- ration dialog box displays the default parameters that may apply to a majority async devices. When the data device is defined, then the trunk configuration needs to be defined. The trunk configuration is displayed in the Trunk Configura- tion dialog box. Most of the trunk information is supplied by your network service provider. For example, if the MultiFRAD at remote site 2 in our typical Frame Relay network in Figure

tion. The trunk configuration would be complete by clicking on the Save button and returning to the Main menu. In the Main menu, click on the download button to transfer the configuration to the MultiFRAD. Within a few seconds the new configuration is downloaded to the MultiFRAD and it is ready for operation. 15
