'''Local Management Interface (LMI)''' is a term used for some signaling standard used in networks, namely [[frame relay]] and [[Ethernet]].
== Frame Relay ==
LMI is a set of signalling standards between [[Router (computing)|router]]s and frame relay switches. Communication takes place between a router and the first frame relay switch it's connected to. Information about [[keepalive]]s, global addressing, [[IP Multicast]] and the status of [[virtual circuits]] is commonly exchanged using LMI.
