frame-relay config question

aueddonline

right i think i'm getting somewhere is this right

frame-relay interface-dlci - this can be used on a multipoint interface but inverse arp need to be enabled. It is also always used on point-to-point subinterfaces.

if inverse arp isn't used the on multipoint subinterfaces the

frame-relay map ip (destination ip)(destination dlci) broadcast

command is used to statically map the dlci to a layer 3 address.


right I have got another question does anyone know how to change an subinterface say s0/0.1 that has been configured as a point-to-point to a mulitpoint or visa versa?????
i've tried
no interface s0/0.1
and when i come to re-create it as the other type it says cannot change type. because i'm a bit concerd that if i want to config a multipoint on the exam and I forget to type anything i.e int s0/0.1 <enter>
it will become a point to point and i won't be able to change it back.

Thanks for reading

Thats right. In addition, You can use the map statement on subinterfaces. I don't think you have to use frame interface-dlci on a subinterface. Depends on the application. Inverse-arp is enabled by default, but it is disabled by default when you use the frame map statement. Is it also disbaled on p-t-p interfaces because discovery is not needed.

if inverse arp isn't used the on multipoint subinterfaces the

Correct. It would be the remote IP and the local DLCI. The local DLCI that would be used to send the frame onto the right VC.

If you try to do int s0/1.1<cr> it should come back as an incomplete command unless you have already created a p-t-p to multipoint on s0/1.1.

You probably need to do a "no interface s0/0.1 point-to-point". To be honest with ya i don't think I have changed it like that. If I did I don't remember.
