IP Protocol

There are two ways to set up Frame Relay. One is to set the WAN interface as a “numbered interface.” This means that the interface (and thus the Frame Relay network) will have an IP address, subnet mask, etc. The other is to set it as an unnumbered interface and specify that the link is point-to-point Frame Relay and set the local DLCI. Unnumbered Frame Relay can only be configured using text-based configuration. Instructions are provided for both options.

Required for IP Numbered Interface

IP numbered interface

IP address

IP subnet mask

IP broadcast address

CV: Use the TCP/IP Routing: WAN Dialog Box.

TB: Use the configure command and the Numbered, IPAddress, SubnetMask, and IPBroadcast keywords in the IP WAN 0 (and/or any other port numbers you wish to configure) section.

Required for IP Unnumbered Interface

IP unnumbered interface

Point-to-Point Frame Relay

Local DLCI

TB: Use the configure command and the Numbered, PointToPointFrame, and Inter- faceDLCI keywords in the IP WAN 0 (and/or any other port numbers you wish to configure) section.

Suggested for IP

These parameters help supply information about the segment that the interface is connected to. With this information, routing can take place.

•Set IP RIP 1, IP RIP 2, OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) or BGP (Border Gateway Protocol)

•IP static routes

CV: Use the TCP/IP Routing: WAN Dialog Box to set RIP, and the IP Static Routing Dialog Box (under Global/IP Static Routes) to set static routes. OSPF and BGP can only be config- ured using text-based configuration.

TB: Use configure and set either the RIPVersion keyword or the OSPFEnabled keyword in the IP WAN 0 (and/or any other port numbers you wish to configure) section. Add static routes and a default router using the edit config IP Static command.

ϖNote: Due to the complexity of BGP, configuration parameters for BGP are not given in this Quickstart. For help with BGP configuration parameters, and other configuration questions, refer to the Tech Support pages on the Compatible Systems Web site at:
