Hansang,
I sometimes use "frame intf-type dte" on my Frame Relay switch.
Most of the time I use a 2520 for my frame switch, and I put the DCE end on
the frame switch. But when I use my 2600 with WIC-2T modules for my frame
switch, my smart-serial-to-DB60 cables have the DTE on the smart-serial end,
which I must attach to the 2620. Because of these cables, I have to make my
frame switch the DTE. The command is available and I use it with no
problem.
HTH, Kym
