“Quick Start” Frame Relay

Since the router auto-learns the frame relay configuration, only a couple of parameters need to be configured before the unit is fully operational as an IP router for frame relay.

Upon initial start up, the router is pre-configured to query the frame relay service to auto-learn the LMI type and the PVC DLCI numbers. The router will then automatically create a remote site profile for each PVC.

Within each of the remote site profiles automatically created Bridging, IP routing, and IPX routing are all set to “enabled”. Because each of these options are enabled by default and the automatically created remote site profiles will establish a PVC connection to the remote site routers, the router will bridge and IPX route data without any user configuration. Because an IP router requires an IP address, the router must be configured with an IP address before IP routing is fully operational.

To configure an IP address for the router, use the IP address option.
