(ASCEND) Re: Max 4000 Frame Relay LMI types

[Peter Lalor <plalor@infoasis.com>]

Holy guacamole, Ascend got back to me fast! The (remarkably complete) 
answer, in case anyone's interested:

>  >Annex A UNI is FR Type DTE or DCE and Link Mgmt = Q.933A in MAX.
>  >Annex A NNI is FR Type NNI and Link Mgmt = Q.933A in MAX.
>  >Annex D UNI is FR Type DTE or DCE and Link Mgmt = T1.617D in MAX.
>  >Annex D NNI is FR Type NNI and Link Mgmt = T1.617D in MAX.
>  >Strata LMI is not supported.
>
>Make sure about these two thing matching:
>
>1. If the CBX is DTE the MAX must be DCE or viceversa.
>2. If the CBX is NNI the MAX must be NNI too.
>3. Make sure they use the same AnnexD or A.
