With IPHost Network Monitor you can run simple snmp requests against a Nortel device in your network.
frAtmCaSdMode
Frame Relay Atm Ca Sd Mode
This attribute specifies the mode of interoperability between the Frame Relay and ATM connections regarding upper layer protocol encapsulations. This is used as the default for all the connections on the interface. When translationMode is selected, the interworking function performs translations between RFC1490 and RFC1483 encapsulated headers. This includes routed protocol translation, bridged protocol translation, and connection oriented protocol translation (except for RFC 1490 connection oriented protocol without RFC 1490 header, which is done in speTranslationMode). A value of transparentMode indicates that the interworking function is forwarding data without altering the upper layer user protocol encapsulation. Use transparent mode when the upper layer user protocol encapsulation methods are compatible between terminal equipments. A value of speTranslationMode indicates that the interworking function performs single protocol translation between RFC1490 with no header and RFC1483 encapsulated packets.
