Explanation:
The show frame-relay pvc displays the status of the PVC. The DCE device creates and sends the report to the DTE devices. There are 4 states:
ACTIVE: the PVC is operational and can transmit data
INACTIVE: the connection from the local router to the switch is working, but the connection to the remote router is not available DELETED: 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.
