Frame Relay Configuration

Chapter 2 - Quickstart Instructions

Protocol)

•Set 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 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:

IPX Protocol

Required for IPX

WAN interfaces which are set for PPP operation do not generally use an IPX address. They are set to act as an “unnumbered interface.” In this mode of operation, there are no required settings.

AppleTalk Protocol

Required for AppleTalk

WAN interfaces which are set for PPP operation do not generally use an AppleTalk address. They are set to act as an “unnumbered interface.” In this mode of operation, there are no required settings.

DECnet Protocol

Required for DECnet

The router’s shipping configuration does not have DECnet turned on. In order to be used, DECnet must be turned on both globally and for a particular port.

•Set DECnet on (globally, and for a port)

•Set DECnet area

•Set DECnet node

CV: Use the DECnet Routing Dialog Box (under Global/DECnet Routing) and the DECnet: WAN Dialog Box.

TB: Use configure and set the Mode keyword in the DECnet WAN 0 section. Use configure and set the Enabled, Area, and Node keywords in the DECnet Global section.

ϖNote: Setting DECnet on for any port with the command line also sets DECnet on globally. In CompatiView you must set a global parameter and a port-specific parameter.

This section covers the settings required for Frame Relay operation of the DS3 WAN interface.

Internal DS3 CSU/DSU Link Configuration

Required for Dedicated Line Operation

This is the only mode of operation supported via the built-in DS3 CSU/DSU.

•Set Dedicated connection
