Frame-relay doubt

dolphin_m70

Hi
I have 3 routers (2500 series) which has 2 serial and one ethernet ports. i config one as frame relay switch and the other two as hosts
for frame-relay
the V.35 DCE cables were conn in both ports

for host no 1 : i conn the DTE to the s0
for host no 2: i conn the DTE to the s0

and conn as the frame relay lab tutorial in this forum
one set ie the host no 1 worked fine ven the "show frame route" comd was exec, it said it was active
the prob is:- host no 2 said inactive ven the same comm was exec
but ven i changed the s0 to s1 for host no 2 it worked fine

the frame relay route comm was set as
for s0:
frame-relay route 100 interface serial 1 200
for s1
frame-relay route 200 interface serial 0 100

cud anyone pls tell me y

thx

You have two option here, you can either configure sub interfaces and set the dlci statements on the hosts,

or apply frame-relay lmi-type ansi
to each interface on the frame switch and hosts this will allow auto discovery.

but ven conn to serial 0 of host 2 it doesnt work
