Configuring frame-relay with point-to-point sub-interfaces

Console Based  |  GUI Based 

Console Based :

Description: Configure frame-relay using point-to-point sub-interfaces. This example uses 4 routers connected together in the form of a star using sub-interfaces.

Note that on a frame-relay network without sub-interfaces, the LMI-type is automatically detected. Similarly, PVC DLCIs are learned through CMS status messages. There is no need to specify the same explicitly. On the otherhand, in a FR network with point-to-point sub-interface configurations, you need to specify the interface-dlci number.

Instructions:

7. Enter sub-interface configuration mode for s0/1.1

8. Specify ip address

9. Specify interface-dlci number 63

10. Exit

11. Specify hostname

12. Enter sub-interface configuration mode for s1/0.1

13. Specify ip address

14. Specify interface-dlci number 64

1. Specify hostname

2. Specify frame-relay encapsulation

3. Enter sub-interface configuration mode for s0/0.1

4. Specify ip address

5. Specify interface-dlci number 63

GUI Based :

Instructions:

1. Select R1 from Select Device drop down click Configure button, this enables left navigation pane

2. In the left navigation pane Click Router > Router Options this displays Device Properties screen in that select Host Name and click Edit button

3. Host Name Configuration screen appears enter the host name as “NY” and click save button.

4. Specify frame-relay encapsulation using Interface Management > Interface and Connections. In Interface Connection window select S0/0 interface and click Create New Connection button. This populates Serial 0/0 interface wizard click next > next > click frame-relay encapsulation then click next > next > next > finish button > click OK button.

5. Enter sub-interface configuration mode for s0/0.1

6. Specify ip address using Interface Management > Interface and Connections. In Interface and Connections window click Edit Interface Connection Tab. Select the s0/0.1 interface and click Edit button. In Interface Feature Edit dialog specify ip address as 192.160.1.1 and click OK button. 

7. Select Router > Frame-Relay Configuration from left navigation pane.

8. Select s0/0.1 interface from interface drop down box and enter dlci number as 62 and click OK button.

9. Enter sub-interface configuration mode for s0/1.1

10. Specify ip address as 192.160.2.1 follow step 5 and 6.
