Frame Relay v3.0 Problem

dentrydentry Member Posts: 42 ■■□□□□□□□□
I am using all Vwic-2mft's. I have the voice t1's making calls between sites using the PSTN. I am having an issue with getting frame relay up. I have matched the configuration from configs found on the web, and done my frame relay research. I am getting green link lights on all my frame relay interfaces but showing down, down. I cannot ping the local frame relay sub interface from the local router BTW. I am using the same pinout for both my t1 rj-45's, as well as my Frame relay rj-45's as well. Below is the configuration from my PSTN, and R3 routers.

    First have to confirmed with the "show controllers" which side is the DCE and put the clock rate on the DCE side?
    Second, can you post the config of the ports in question and what is connected where. I'm not going to spend 10 minutes looking through your config trying to work out which ports you are having issues with.
    Networking, sometimes i love it, mostly i hate it.Its all about the $$$$

    The clock rate is on the PSTN side, it shows it in the config.

    It would have been nice if you distinguished between the FR interfaces, but anyway i've worked out your topology.
    Firstly from a cosmetic point of view you should switch the interfaces around because at the moment you have dlci 102 on router 3 and dlci 103 on router 2.

    1) You have lmi type cisco on your FR switch and ansi on your router interfaces, if you remove the lmi config the routers will negotiate the lmi themselves, otherwise set both identical how you like.
    2) Since all devices seem to be cisco you dont need ietf encapsulation, encapsulation frame-relay will do, but since both sides have ietf configured it wont break anything.

    If it still doesn't come up verify that the physical cables connected to the PSTN router are DCE, the clockrate goes on the DCE end, "show controllers" will tell you.

    Thanks for the pointers Ed, I have not had a chance to get to the lab to verify anything. I should be posting tommorrow morning.

    Hi Dentry,
    Before requesting help, can you spend the time to check your config is correct, i expect a CCNA at the very least to be able to do a sanity check. Look a the below config R3 connects to R1, if i go by your descriptions the FR interfaces are on different networks.
    I cant understand why you cant ask a simple question like:
    I have 3 routers connected, router a,b and c. Ra ser0/0/1 is connected to Rb ser1/1/1, Ra ser0/0/2 is connected to Rc ser2/2/1. The port between Ra and Rc is down and wont come up.
    Instead you paste configs lots of interface configs where the dlci's and descriptions don't match up, i'm here to help but not do your job.So i'm not looking at this anymore!

    Sorry Ed, I was trying to provide as much Voice config related information as possible. I matched the DLCI's numbering to their respective routers as you requested. I wasnt aware of an exact format for questions.
  • dentrydentry Member Posts: 42 ■■□□□□□□□□
    No thanks to Ed, I figured out what was wrong. Turns out the LMI command is needed.
