Which two statistics are displayed in the output of #show frame-relay map?

1. Local DLCI value and the mapped IP address

2. Local DLCI value and status of the PVC

3. PVC uptime and packet loss rate

4. Connected IP addresses and routing protocols in use

The correct answer is: Local DLCI value and status of the PVC

The output of the `show frame-relay map` command primarily includes critical information about the configuration and status of Frame Relay circuits. Among the statistics presented, the local Data Link Connection Identifier (DLCI) value is crucial as it uniquely identifies the connection to a Frame Relay service provider. The status of the PVC (Permanent Virtual Circuit) is equally important, as it indicates whether the circuit is operational and its state during the connectivity session. This output essentially provides network administrators with insight into the mappings of protocols to the Frame Relay interface and the health status of these mappings. Having both the local DLCI and the PVC status allows for effective troubleshooting and management of Frame Relay connections, making this combination particularly relevant for understanding the network's operation and reliability. The other options involve details that are not part of what is provided by the `show frame-relay map` command. For example, information about PVC uptime and packet loss rate focuses on performance metrics rather than the configuration and status of Frame Relay mappings. Additionally, connected IP addresses and routing protocols fall outside the scope of the Frame Relay mapping command's intended use. Thus, the correct answer focuses on fundamental operational aspects critical to maintaining network connectivity in a Frame Relay environment.
