HP 7000 dl Router manual Interface frame-relay label point-to-point, Point-to-point

SROS Command Line Interface Reference Guide Global Configuration Mode Command Set

interface frame-relay <label> point-to-point

Use the interface frame-relaycommand to create a virtual Frame Relay interface (or sublink, if specified) that is identified using the entered number label. In addition, entering this command activates the Frame Relay interface. The point-to-pointkeyword (optional) can be used to identify the Frame Relay endpoint as a point-to-point link (versus multipoint). Use the no form of this command to delete a configured virtual Frame Relay interface.

To specify a virtual Frame Relay sub-interface, the following syntax applies: interface frame-relay<label>.<sublink label>

Syntax Description

<label>	Specifies the numerical virtual Frame Relay interface identifying label (valid
	range: 1 to 1024)
<sublink label>	Numerical label for the virtual sublink (valid range: 1-255)
point-to-point	Optional. Identifies the Frame Relay interface as a point-to-point link (versus
	multilink) By default, all created Frame Relay interfaces are point-to-point.

Default Values

By default, there are no configured virtual Frame Relay interfaces or sublinks.

Command Modes

(config)# Global Configuration Mode required

Functional Notes

Creating an endpoint that uses a layer 2 protocol (such as Frame Relay) is generally a four-step process:

Step 1:

Create the Frame Relay virtual endpoint (using the interface frame-relaycommand) and set the signaling method (using the frame-relaylmi-typecommand). Also included in the Frame Relay virtual endpoint are all the applicable Frame Relay timers, logging thresholds, encapsulation types, etc. Generally, most Frame Relay virtual interface parameters should be left at their default state. For example, the following creates a Frame Relay interface labeled 7 and sets the signaling method to ansi.

(config)#interface frame-relay 7 (config-fr7)#frame-relay lmi-type ansi

Step 2:

Create the sub-interface and configure the PVC parameters. Using the sub-interface, apply access policies to the interface, create bridging interfaces, configure backup, assign an IP address, and set the PVC data-link control identifier (DLCI). For example, the following creates a Frame Relay sub-interface labeled 22, sets the DLCI to 30, and assigns an IP address of 193.44.69.1/30 to the interface.
