The FRSESET (frame-relay switching equipment set) definition
statement contains the pairings of the frame relay PUs for a frame
relay line.
In a FRSESET statement, you specify the primary frame
relay PU partners and their optional backups in the SUBPORTS operand.
There are a minimum of two and a maximum of four PUs in a FRSESET
definition statement. The FRELAY operand on the GROUP definition statement
indicates the type of frame relay group.
The following FRSESET rules are validated by VTAM®:
- The name on the FRSESET is required and unique in a domain. If
not, a message is issued stating that a duplicate resource has been
defined.
- Each puname represents a PU type 1. If not, a message is issued
stating the puname is defined incorrectly.
- Each puname listed in SUBPORTS was defined in this NCP source
prior to this FRSESET. If the puname has not been defined previously,
a message is issued stating an undefined resource has been used in
the FRSESET statement.
- The required punames are coded. If not, a message is issued stating
that a required parameter has been specified on the FRSESET statement.
- Each puname coded on the SUBPORTS operand must be distinct within
SUBPORTS and across FRSESET definition statements. If punames in
SUBPORTS are not distinct, a message is issued stating a duplicate
resource has been used. If a puname has been used in more than one
FRSESET, a message is issued stating that a duplicate resource has
been used.
- None of the punames in SUBPORTS is owned by different VTAMs.
If so, a message is issued stating that the resource is not owned
by this VTAM.
- None of the PUs in SUBPORTS is the first PU under a LINE. The
first PU under a LINE is the local management interface (LMI). If
a PU in SUBPORTS is the LMI, a message is issued stating that a resource
used in the definition is not valid.
- Each puname in the source is in a FRSESET. If the puname is defined
as a frame-relay PU and is not in a FRSESET, a message is issued identifying
that the PU cannot be processed.
The following rule is not validated by VTAM, but is validated by NCP, which sends a
sense code if the rule is not followed:
- Each puname in SUBPORTS is on a distinct frame-relay line.
