Re: Frame-Relay

If your LMI is communicating with the switch correctly, you'll be able to
see what DLCIs are available via the 'show frame-relay pvc' command. If you
are configuring back to back, you won't have LMI so you can pretty much make
up your own DLCI numbers at that point.

I would say for the lab that if you got into a situation where no DLCI was
given, pull up the DLCI list you get from the switch, and ask the proctor if
it makes a difference which one you use. If the switch is sending you 3
DLCI numbers, it probably isn't going to matter which one you choose.
