Configures the device to allow the state of the LMI to be passed from one interface to
another, determining how the unit will handle a change in the LMI state. Sometimes
referred to as LMI pass-through.
Display Conditions – Port-n options are available on CSU/DSUs and Rtr-S0 options
are available on FrameSaver SLV Routers. Port-2 options are available on units with
two data ports.
NOTE: LMI Behavior cannot be changed while Auto Backup is enabled. A warning
message appears at the bottom of the screen if auto backup is enabled. First, disable
Auto Backup, and then change LMI Behavior.
Independent – Handles the LMI state of each interface separately so that the LMI state of
one interface has no effect on the LMI state of another interface. Provides LMI Spoofing.
This is the recommended setting when backup is configured, and for Network Service
Providers (NSPs).
