4-8 HSIM-W84 Installation Guide
The information provided in a FULL STATUS RESPONSE, or ASYNCHRONOUS STATUS
MESSAGE basically has two parts, the FR Switch provides a DLCI number, and whether that
DLCI is in the Active or Inactive state.
Active State — means that both ends of the connection (this DTE and the DTE at the other end
of the WAN cloud) are speaking correctly to the FR DCE Switches in the WAN cloud. The Inactive
state means that either the local or far end DTE is either just starting up and has not completed its
initial negotiation with the FR Switch, or there is some sort of LMI error. Data (other than LMI
negotiation messages) will only be transferred when in the Active state.
Invalid — the third state value is reported locally only. It is not done by polling the FR switch.
This is done if the physical connection has some sort of problem. The circuit will remain in the
Invalid state until negotiation with the FR DCE Switch completes successfully.
