FRAS States

The output of the show fras command displays the current state. These states appear in the same order in which they occur during a successful connection sequence.

• ls_reset—Initial state.

• ls_RqOpnStnSent—TEST frame sent; request to open a connection end point.

• ls_ExchgXid—Exchange identification (XID) negotiation taking place.

• ls_ConnRqSent—Set Asynchronous Balanced Mode Extended (SABME) sent (connecting side).

• ls_SigStnWait—Waiting for signal to clean up the congestion, and respond to polling with a receiver not ready (RNR).

• ls_ConnRspWait—Waiting for the other connection end point (CEP) to bring up the link.

• ls_ConnRspSent—An unnumbered acknowledgment (UA) has been sent and the router is waiting for a Receive Ready (RR) to clear up the flow.

• ls_Contacted—Everything is connected.

• ls_DiscWait—Waiting for an acknowledge to disconnect request.
