Explanation:
The PVC STATUS displays the status of the PVC. The DCE device creates and
sends the report to the DTE devices. There are 4 statuses:
ACTIVE: the PVC is operational and can transmit dataINACTIVE: the connection from the local
router to the switch is working, but the connection to the remote router is not availableDELETED:
the PVC is not present and no LMI information is being received from the Frame Relay switch
STATIC: the Local Management Interface (LMI) mechanism on the interface is disabled (by using
the “no keepalive” command). This status is rarely seen.
