This read-write object specifies the disposition applied to Ethernet Local Management Interface (E-LMI) protocol frames on this CPD profile, controlling how the device handles this UNI-signaling protocol used to communicate EVC status to customer equipment. An administrator sets this to determine whether E-LMI frames are peered with locally to actively respond to customer queries, dropped, or passed through. For example, setting this disposition to peer on a UNI-facing port lets the device actively respond to a customer router's E-LMI status requests about the associated EVC.
