PVC Connections
From this screen, you can go directly to the Management PVC screen by
selecting the MgmtP
VCs function key for easy movement between screens.
Quick removal of unused DLCIs included in an existing PVC Connection, except
for HQ_Site, is also available when the Del
ete function key is selected and you
respond Yes to the Remove otherwise unused components associated
with the deleted PVC? prompt.
To configure these options, Service Type on the Easy Install screen must be set
to Frame Relay.

Source Link
Possible Settings: Port-1, Net1-FR1
Default Setting: Initially blank; no default.
Specifies the frame relay interface that starts a PVC connection; the from end of a
from-to link. The only valid settings for this configuration option are frame relay
interfaces that have at least one DLCI or EDLCI defined that are not part of a PVC
connection or management link. For example, if Port-1 has no DLCIs defined, Port-1
would not appear as a valid setting.
