Frame Relay Monitoring

Router# show interface or show interface serial are the most common commands which show a wide variety of information including showing you the DLCI used for LMI. When monitoring Frame Relay information on the router, a number of items are typically monitored including DLCI and LMI.
Router# debug frame-relay LMI command that you would use to monitor LMI information
Frame Relay Troubleshooting
If a Frame-Relay DLCI attains a state other than “active” meaning inactive or deleted, you can check the Frame-Relay configuration to make sure its configuration matches the configuration of the router acting as the Frame-Relay DTE device.
Router# show frame-relay pvc - can be used to verify that the Frame-Relay PVCs are active and operational
Router# show frame-relay route - can be used to get a listing of the status of all the PVC’s
Router# show frame-relay map - can be used to verify that inverse ARP has successfully mapped remote network layer addresses to the appropriate DLCI.
