What does the STATUS=ACTIVE refer to in the output of theĀ show frame-relay pvc command?
A. The PVC is experiencing congestion.
B. The Frame Relay switch is correctly programmed with the DLCI and is operational.
C. The router is actively broadcasting to establish a link to the Frame Relay switch.
D. The router is connected to the local Frame Relay switch, but not to the far end device.
Answer: B
Explanation:
The Frame Relay switch uses LMI to report the status of configured PVCs. The three possible PVC states are as follows:
Active state – Indicates that the connection is active and that routers can exchange data. This is the state of an operational PVC.
Inactive state - Indicates that the local connection to the Frame Relay switch is working, but the remote router connection to the Frame Relay switch is not working.
Deleted state - Indicates that no LMI is being received from the Frame Relay switch, or that there is no service between the CPE router and Frame Relay switch.
