I guess I fail to see that. If you manually make the entries rather
than allowing the circuit to set them automatically, you CANNOT
determine wether you have a circuit problem or just screwed up an
entry somewhere in the router. A FR circuit that doesnt provide the
IP addy with the DLCI via LMI is in trouble, period. BTW,
I sleep just dandy.
