Introduction
UNDERSTANDING FRAME RELAY
Frame relay is a wide area network (WAN) service designed to
minimize physical connections. This is accomplished by using
virtual connections within the frame relay cloud and accessing
these virtual circuits with normally one physical connection at each
location to the frame relay service. Virtual circuits are addressed
using header information at the beginning of each frame. These
frames are formatted by the user's CPE equipment such as the
ADTRAN Express 5210.
ANSI standards describe how each frame must be constructed to
provide interoperability between CPE equipment and frame relay
switching equipment. Each frame must contain a header, at least
one byte of information data, two bytes of CRC16, and a trailing
flag 0x7E.
This header information contains a virtual circuit addr ess known as
a DLCI (data link connection identifier). The header information
also contains bits used for network congestion control.
Frame relay virtual circuits may be defined as permanent (PVC) or
switched (SVC). PVCs have the same DLCI for a given path each
time a user protocol session is established. The network service
provider assigns these DLCIs at subscription time. SVCs, on the
other hand, have DLCIs dynamically assigned each time a user
protocol session is established. The CPE equipment must request a
call and the DLCI is assigned by the network switching equipment.

Chapter 1. Introduction
This DLCI is valid until the call is disconnected and may be
assigned a different value each time a call is requested.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The ADTRAN Express 5210 is a standalone frame relay access
device (FRAD) that provides a cost-effective means of transporting
voice and multi-protocol data over frame relay or DDS networks.
The Express 5210 provides an easy-to-use interface for customers
migrating existing services or developing new applications for
operation over frame relay networks.
The Express 5210 provides high-quality voice and fax capabilities
to remote locations without expensive toll charges. In frame relay
networks, the Express 5210 allows voice and data to share the same
PVC, eliminating unnecessary PVC charges associated with other
vendors’ voice and data frame relay products. Two voice ports are
provided when configured with a voice option card. Options
include: Dual FXS, Dual FXO, and Dual E&M.
The Express 5210 provides a DTE interface for connecting a nonframe relay device to the frame relay network. This port can be
configured for either EIA-232 or V.35 signal specifications.
Synchronous protocol speeds up to 512 kbps and asynchronous
protocol speeds up to 57.6 kbps are supported. See the appendix
Pinouts on page A-1 for the pin assignments.
The Express 5210 handles each frame of the user data in a threestep manner. The first step is terminating the user protocol. The
layer at which this termination occurs varies, depending on the
user protocol selection for a given port. The next step is examining
the user protocol destination address and ro uting to the destination
port and virtual circuit. The last step involves encapsulating the
information field of each frame and re-encapsulating based on the
destination port configuration. A similar process is used for frame
relay frames received on the network port.
The major features of the Express 5210 are as follows:
• Dual voice port support; options include Dual FXS, Dual FXO,
and Dual E&M

Chapter 1. Introduction
SNMP
The Express 5210's embedded SNMP feature allows the unit to be
accessed and controlled by a network manager through one of the
following:
• the network interface
• a DTE port running frame relay, SLIP, or async PPP protocol
• the 10BaseT LAN port
The Express 5210 supports the MIB-II standard, RFC 1213, and the
ADTRAN Enterprise Specific MIB.
MIB files are available from ADTRAN in the support section of the
ADTRAN Web page at www.adtran.com.
The term SNMP broadly refers to the message protocols used to
exchange information between the network and the managed
devices, as well as to the structure of network management data
bases. SNMP has three basic components:
Network Manager
Control program that collects, contr ols, and pr esents data pertinent
to the operation of the network devices. It resides on a network
management station.
Agent
Control program that resides in each network device connected.
This program responds to queries and commands from the
network manager and returns requested information or invokes
configuration changes initiated by the manager.
MIB
Index to the organized data within a network device. It defines the
operation parameters that can be controlled or monitored.
Telnet
TELNET provides a password-protected, remote login facility to
the Express 5210. TELNET allows a user on a network manager to
1-4 Express 5210 User Manual 61200208L1-1
control the Express 5210 through the terminal menus. See the
section TELNET Utility on page 4-1 for more information on setting
up a TELNET session.
Voice Compression
The Express 5210 voice option cards employ voice compression
technology to provide toll-quality voice using significantly less
bandwidth than traditional voice channels. In addition to
supporting voice calls, the cards support group 3 facsimile up to
14.4 kbps. The Express 5210 dynamically allocates bandwidth to
voice and data applications. This results in al l bandwidth being
available for data applications in the absence of voice or fax.
For information on configuring these options, see the chapter Voice
Configuration on page 8-1. The three available voice options are
described in the following sections.
FXS Module
The FXS module provides two 2-wire compressed voice interfaces
and serves as the source of line current and ringing voltage. The
FXS serves as the station side of a foreign exchange FXS/FXO
application. The FXS may also be paired with another FXS to
provide private line automatic ringdown (PLAR) function across
the WAN.
Chapter 1. Introduction
FXO Module
The FXO module provides two 2-wire compressed voice interfaces
and provides a load for line current. The module includes a ring
detector and a line current detector. The FXO serves as the office
side of a foreign exchange FXS/FXO application.
E&M Module
The E&M module provides two 2- or 4-wire compressed voice
interfaces for use in E&M applications.

Chapter 1. Introduction
Dial Backup Operation
The Express 5210 supports dial backup of point-to-point DDS
circuits or frame relay circuits. For DDS backup, the Express 5210
enters dial backup based on physical line faults. During dial
backup, the Express 5210 monitors the main line integrity and
drops the dial backup call when the main line is restored.
For frame relay dial backup, the Express 5210 monitors the physical
line condition as well as the signaling state of the frame relay
circuit. Once the configured DBU criteria have been met, the
Express 5210 initiates a DBU call. The Express 5210 receiving the
call qualifies the incoming call and re-routes the PVCs affected by
the outage while continuing to service other PVCs on the network
interface.
During dial backup, the Express 5210 constantly monitors the
physical state of the network. It als o a ttempts to re-establish
signaling on the main line. Once both the physical integrity and the
signaling state are restored, the unit drops the dial backup call and
reverts to the main line.
The 4-wire SW56 DBU card is compatible with AT&T Accunet and
Sprint SW56 type services. The V.34 DBU card allows switched
backup over the public switched telephone network (PSTN). The
ISDN 1B+D card supports a U- interface to the Basic R ate ISDN and
is compatible with National ISDN and AT&T DMS.
The Express 5210's unique DBU cards are field-installable by the
customer. See the section DBU and Voice Interface C ard S lo ts on page
2-4 for information on installing DBU cards. Also see the chapter
Dial Backup Configuration on page 10-1 for information on
configuring DBU options.
The backup options are described in the following section. Contact
the local telco provider to determine which services ar e ava ilable in
your area.

Applications
This chapter provides examples of some common Express 5210
data and voice applications. The data examples include SNA/
SDLC with local spoofing, transparent, and LAN applications . The
voice applications (which begin on page 5-9) include switched,
daisy-chaining, PLAR circuits, and direct FXS/FXO. The
configuration selections given in these examples may need
modification based on your network configuration.
DATA APPLICATIONS
SNA/SDLC with Local Spoofing
When used in an SNA/SDLC network, the Express 5210 provides
local spoofing by emulating the prim ary or secondary SDLC roles
(see Figure 5-1). The Express 5210 performs conversion from SDLC
to frame relay and also terminates SDLC links, providing primary
and secondary emulation between Express 5210s. Local spoofing
improves performance by reducing traffic across the frame relay
network and allows definite response times on the SDLC links.
To perform spoofing, the Express 5210 automatically sets itself up
to provide primary or secondary emulation based on the receipt of
SNRM (set normal response mode) from an SDLC device. The
Express 5210 looks for SNRM on all ports and assumes a secondary
role once SNRM is received. The Express 5210 then brings up the
LLC2 link across the frame relay network to another FRAD which
assumes a primary role. This allows the Express 5210 to operate
with PU 2.1 devices.
61200208L1-1 Express 5210 User Ma nual 5-1
Chapter 5. Applications
Different roles can be assumed for each SDLC session. Disconnection starts the role determination procedure again.
In all cases, the Express 5210 is transparent to the XID (exchange identification) negotiation between any two network devices.
The Express 5210 uses LLC protocol (mode 2) to transport SDLC
information frames. This protocol ensures a reliable link across
frame relay, providing protection from frame loss and excessive
delays. The encapsulation method uses the RFC 1490 format. See
Table 5-1 for an example of how to configure the Express 5210 for
this application.

Transparent Application
In cases when the user protocol is not supported by the
Express 5210, the transparent mode may be used. Transparent bitoriented protocol (BOP) or transparent asynchronous protocol may
be selected. This can be used for point-to-point connections only
because the Express 5210 is transparent to the protocol address
formats.
In the
T
RANSPARENT
BOP
protocol, the Express 5210 accepts an
HDLC-like protocol and encapsulates the information field of the
HDLC frames, transporting them across the frame relay network to
the specified virtual circuit and remote Express 5210 port number.
The incoming frames must be spaced with at least one flag byte
(0x7E) and contain two bytes of CRC16 at the end of each frame.
Asynchronous protocols are supported by using the
A
mode. The Express 5210 buffers async characters and
SYNC
T
RANSPARENT
encapsulates the data portion of each character for transport across
frame relay using a programmable DLCI and remote Express 5210
port number.
See Figure 5-2 and Table 5-2 for an example of a transparent BOP
configuration. See Figure 5-3 and Table 5-3 for an example of a

LAN Application
The Express 5210’s 10BaseT ethernet port allows IP routing
between the ethernet interface and other IP interfaces visible to the
unit. TELNET management and SNMP management are also
available via the ethernet interface.
WAN interfaces may be numbered or unnumbered. Figure 5-4
depicts a numbered WAN interface. For purposes of this example,
assume a subnet mask of 255.255. 255.0. Routes to the rem ote LANs
are established using static routes or RIP. Routes to the remote
WAN interfaces are established using static routes, inverse ARP, or
RIP. Once routes are established, IP traffic can flow between any
two IP addresses shown in Figure 5-4. See Table 5-4 for an example
configuration. The options listed in the table are found in the

VOICE APPLICATIONS
Voice over frame relay can be accomplished using the Express 5210
with an optional dual voice card installed (Dual FXO, FXS, or E&M
card). The following sections describe voice application examples
using the Express 5210. Examples include switched mode (page
5-9), daisy-chaining (page 5-11), PLAR mode (page 5-12), and direct
FXS/FXO (page 5-13).
Switched Mode Application
Switched mode is used to multiplex several remote extensions (up
to 40) to two host ports (see Figure 5-5). This enables many remote
users to have access to a limited number of access lines on a call-bycall basis. The host unit typically connects two extensions to a PBX
via an FXO module. The remote units connect to telephone sets via
FXS modules.
The host unit is programmed with the extensions and DLCI
information for all of the remote units. This information is
communicated to the remote units over the network.
Chapter 5. Applications
External Call Origination
When the telephone set on a remote Express 5210 is taken off-hook,
the remote Express 5210 generates dial tone and waits for an
extension to be entered by the user. Once the extension is entered,
the remote Express 5 210 transmits this information to the host
Express 5210, where it is compared to extension information in the
extension/DLCI table. If the extension is not located, the host
assumes the number is external and attempts to seize an available
port and dial the extension on the PBX. If no port is available, a
trunk busy (fast busy) is returned to the remote port. After the
extension is dialed, the data link is established and the call remains
up until the remote Express 5210 terminates the call.
External Call Reception
When an incoming call is received from the PBX, the remote
Express 5210 auto-answers the call and generates a dial tone. At
this point, the calling party can dial the extension of the party they
61200208L1-1 Express 5210 User Ma nual 5-9
Chapter 5. Applications
Internal Calls
are trying to reach. The host looks up the extension in the
extension/DLCI table and routes the call appropriately. If the
extension does not exist, the Express 5210 generates a trunk busy
signal back into the PBX. Otherwise, the host routes the call to the
appropriate port. When the remote party answers the call, the data
link is established and the call remains up until the remote
Express 5210 hangs up or unt i l a loss of line current is detecte d on
the FXO port.
When the telephone set on a remote Express 5210 is taken off-hook,
the remote Express 5210 generates a dial tone and waits for the
extension to be entered. Once the extension is entered, the remote
Express 5210 transmits this information to the host Express 5210,
where it is compared to extension information in the extension/
DLCI table. If the extension is found in the extension/DLCI table,
the call is routed to the appropriate extension via the host unit.
When the called unit goes off-hook, the data link is establishe d and
remains up until one of the two extensions terminates the call.

Daisy-Chaining Over Frame Relay
In this configuration, multi p le units are daisy-chained at the host
site to accommodate switched OPX (off premise extension) lines.
See Figure 5-6. The Express 5210 can be daisy-chained on the host
end to accommodate more PBX extensions.

Chapter 5. Applications
PLAR Mode Application
PLAR (private line automatic ringdown) mode connects up to two
remote telephone sets to one or two local telephone sets without a
PBX. PLAR mode runs over a point-to-point DDS network or over
a frame relay network. This mode requires the use of FXS modules
on both ends for connection to the telephone sets. In PLAR mode,
taking a phone off-hook rings the opposite end of the circuit. See
Figure 5-7.
Figure 5-6. Daisy-Chaining Application
For PLAR mode, the DLCI for each voice port must be programmed. In the case of a frame relay circuit, this is the local DLCI
that the voice data is to be carried on. For a point-to-point DDS circuit, the DLCI value must be non-zero and it must be the same on
both ends of the circuit.
5-12 Express 5210 User Manual 61200208L1-1
Direct Mode Application
Direct mode is used to set up a typical FXS/FXO extension
arrangement. In this mode, the local unit is connected to a PBX via
an FXO module. The remote unit uses an FXS module to connect
the telephone sets. In this arrangement, the local PBX extensions
are extended across the frame relay or point-to-point DDS circuit.
In direct mode, the Express 5210 is transparent to the telephone
circuit. All signalling information is generated/detected by the
attached PBX/telephone.
Chapter 5. Applications
Figure 5-7. PLAR Mode Application
For direct mode, the DLCI for each voice port must be programmed. In the case of a frame relay circuit, this is the local DLCI
that the voice data is to be carried on. For a point-to-point DDS circuit, the DLCI value must be non-zero and it must be the same on
both ends of the circuit. See Figure 5-8.

Link Control Type 2 (LLC2). LLC2 defines the data link frame
header and supports the multiplexing of one or more data links to/
from separate service access points (SAPs). Type 2 provides
acknowledged, connection-oriented service. See Figure 7-5.

mode is used to multiplex several remote extensions (up
to 40) to two host ports. This enables many remote users to have
access to a limited number of access lines on a cal l- by- call basis.
The host unit typically connects two extensions to a PBX via an
FXO module. The remote units connect to telephone sets via FXS
modules. See the section Switched Mode Application on page 5-9 for
an example ap plication.

across a frame relay network. In this mode, L1 and L2 on the local
unit are connected to L1 and L2 on the remote unit. With this
option, one or two extensions can be extended across the frame
relay or DDS network by using an FXO module on the local unit
and an FXS module on the remote unit. PLAR circuits are also
supported by using FXS modules on both ends of the circuit.
Related application examples are given on pages 5-12 and 5-13.
