DLCI specifies the DLCI address of the frame-relay subport or internet host. All DLCI values associated with a single frame-relay physical line or a NTRI frame handler logical line must be unique. For example, if you use DLCI X'30' on a frame-relay physical line to identify a subarea terminating equipment subport (TESP) or a frame handler subport (FHSP), address X'30' cannot be used by a peripheral device to establish an incoming logical peripheral connection to NCP over that same physical line.

You should avoid using DLCI X'20' (decimal 32) when you define frame-relay peripheral links, because peripheral devices often use DLCI X'20' for incoming calls. When a subarea link TESP or FHSP uses this DLCI, the peripheral devices must be reconfigured to use a different DLCI.

Note: You can code DLCI or ADDR on frame relay PUs, but not both.

See NCP, SSP, and EP Resource Definition Reference for more information about the DLCI operand.
