Configuring Frame Relay on CES

Configuring frame relay on the CES can be accomplished through the command line interface (CLI) or through the Web GUI.

To enable Frame Relay through the CLI

1.To configure a physical interface on a slot and connector, navigate to the top-level box prompt and enter:

Interface serial <slot_number>/<interface_number>

slot_number is the number of the slot on which the link module is located. interface_number is the number of the module on which the slot is located.

After you configure a physical interface, the CLI returns a prompt that specifies your current working location.

For example, the following command configures a serial interface on slot 6, interface 1.

CES(config)#interface serial 6/1 CES(config-if)#

2.Configure description and circuit number. The circuit number is only relevant for administration purposes only. (Not used by system for identification of circuit.)

CES(config-if)#description “frame relay 61” CES(config-if)#circuit-id 1

3.Configure line rate and interface filter.

CES(config-if)# filter “deny all”

(quotes are needed for filter names with 2 words or more)

CES(config-if)# data-rate 1536

(parameter is entered in kilobits, only valid parameters are multiples of 64k starting at 64k and ending at 2048k)

4.Configure frame-relay connection type with the following command:

Frame-relay connection-type <connection-type>

<connection-type> can be:

direct for placing 2 FR CES ports back-to-back switched (default) to connection to a frame-relay cloud.

Example:

CES(config-if)#frame-relay connection-type switched
