R1(config-if)# encapsulation hdlc (reset the interface to the default value of HDLC)

Frame-Relay Commands

-There are two basic types of Frame-Relay configuration: Point-to-Point and Multi-Point.

-A Point-to-Point link involves a single IP subnet and one DLCI. It may be configured directly on the physical interface or may be done as a sub-interface.

**FR Point-to-Point no sub-interface; Sample Configuration 1:

R1(config)# interface serial 0/0/0

R1(config-if)# ip address 192.168.5.1 255.255.255.252 (typically /30)

R1(config-if)# encapsulation frame-relay [ietf, cisco] PVC=IEFT is optional, cisco=default)

R1(config-if)# frame-relay lmi-type [ansi, q933a, cisco] (optional, cisco=default)

R1(config-if)# frame-relay map ip 192.168.5.1 752 (to allow local ping- 192.168.5.1 is the local interface IP, DLCI=752 is a valid DLCI for this interface)

R1(config-if)# frame-relay map ip 192.168.5.2 752 broadcast [ietf, cisco] (192.168.5.2 is next hop, DLCI=752, broadcast is optional, PVC=IEFT is optional – cisco is default)

**FR Point-to-Point with sub-interface; Sample Configuration 2:

R1(config)# interface serial 0/0/0

R1(config-if)# no ip address (no IP address on the main interface)

R1(config-if)# encapsulation frame-relay [ietf, cisco] PVC=IEFT is optional, cisco=default)

R1(config-if)# frame-relay lmi-type [ansi, q933a, cisco] (optional, cisco=default)

R1(config-if)# interface serial 0/0/0.752 point-to-point (sub-int # is customarily DLCI #)

R1(config-subif)# ip address 192.168.5.1 255.255.255.252 (typically /30)

R1(config-subif)# frame-relay interface-dlci 752 (DLCI=752, next hop and broadcast are dynamically assigned)

-Multi-point configurations are when there is one IP subnet with multiple connections (DLCIs). It may be configured directly on the physical interface or may be done as a sub-interface.

**Multi-Point no sub-interface; Sample Configuration 3:

R1(config)# interface serial 0/0/0

R1(config-if)# ip address 192.168.5.1 255.255.255.248 (not /30)

R1(config-if)# encapsulation frame-relay

R1(config-if)# frame-relay lmi-type [ansi, q933a, cisco] (optional, cisco=default)

R1(config-if)# frame-relay map ip 192.168.5.1 752 (to allow local ping- 192.168.5.1 is the local interface IP, DLCI=752 is a valid DLCI for this interface)

R1(config-if)# frame-relay map ip 192.168.5.2 752 broadcast [ietf, cisco] (192.168.5.2 is next hop, DLCI=752, broadcast is optional, PVC=IEFT is optional – cisco is default)

R1(config-if)# frame-relay map ip 192.168.5.3 339 broadcast [ietf, cisco] (192.168.5.3 is next hop, DLCI=339, broadcast is optional, PVC=IEFT is optional – cisco is default)

**Multi-Point with sub-interface; Sample Configuration 4:

R1(config)# interface serial 0/0/0

R1(config-if)# no ip address (no IP address on the main interface)

R1(config-if)# encapsulation frame-relay (not configured on sub-interface)

R1(config-if)# frame-relay lmi-type [ansi, q933a, cisco] (optional, cisco=default)

R1(config-if)# interface serial 0/0/0.752 multipoint (sub-interface # is customarily DLCI #)

R1(config-subif)# ip address 192.168.5.1 255.255.255.248 (not /30)

R1(config-subif)# frame-relay map ip 192.168.5.1 752 (to allow local ping- 192.168.5.1 is the local interface IP, DLCI=752 is a valid DLCI for this interface)

Dynamic: Map entry was created through inverse-ARP.

R1# show frame-relay lmi (see status of local link to Frame-Relay cloud)

R1# show frame-relay pvc (see which links are actually up end-to-end)

Active: PVC is fully connected and functional.

Inactive: Connected to FR switch, but other side isn’t seen.

Delete: Not talking to the FR switch.

Access Control Lists

Standard Access Lists

-Standard access lists only evaluate the source IP field. They can use the ‘host’ and ‘any’ keywords, or apply wildcard masks. They do not use port numbers.

**Named Standard Access List :

R-1(config)# ip access-list standard NAME (name the list)

R-1(config-std-nacl)# deny host 192.168.20.5 log (deny a specific host / log matches)

R-1(config-std-nacl)# permit 192.168.20.0 0.0.0.255 (permit subnet 192.168.20.0)

R-1(config-std-nacl)# deny any (deny all other IP addresses)

**Numbered IP Standard Access List:

R-1(config)# access-list 25 deny host 192.168.20.5 (deny specific host)

R-1(config)# access-list 25 permit 192.168.20.0 0.0.0.255 (permit entire subnet)

R-1(config)# access-list 25 deny any (deny all other IP addresses)

Extended Access Lists

Action (required)	Protocol (required)	Source IP (required)	Compare (optional)	Port/Protocol (optional)	Dest IP (required)	Compare (optional)	Port/Protocol (optional)
permit	IP	IP address & Wildcard mask	eq	23 – telnet	IP address & Wildcard mask	eq	23 – telnet
deny	TCP	gt	80 – http	gt	80 – http
remark	UDP	any	lt	443 – https	any	lt	443 – https
	ICMP	host X.X.X.X	neq	echo (ping)	host X.X.X.X	neq	echo (ping)
	OSPF		range	echo-reply		range	echo-reply
	EIGRP
	Etc…

There can be additional optional commands (log, time-of-day, established, etc) on the end of most statements. The protocol field must match destination port/protocol - if used (example: TCP=Telnet, ICMP=Ping, UDP=DNS).

**Named Extended Access List:

R-1(config)# ip access-list extended NAME (name the list)

Example: Deny an individual host to an entire subnet for Telnet and also log matches:

R-1(config-ext-nacl)# deny tcp host 192.168.20.10 172.16.0.0 0.0.255.255 eq 23 log

Example: Permit an entire subnet to go anywhere:

R-1(config-ext-nacl)# permit ip 192.168.20.0 0.0.0.255 any

Example: Deny everything:

R-1(config-ext-nacl)# deny ip any any (this is applied by default if not configured)

Applying Access Lists

R-1(config)# interface fastethernet 0/0

R-1(config-if)# ip access-group NAME in (evaluate packets coming in to the router)

R-1(config-if)# ip access-group NAME out (evaluate packets leaving the router)

R-1(config)# line vty 0 4

R-1(config-line)# access-class NAME in (evaluate packets for telnet or SSH)

Dynamic Access List (Stateful-Firewall)

R1(config)# ip access-list extended OUTBOUND-TRAFFIC

R1(config-ext-nacl)# permit tcp any any reflect TCP-TRAFFIC

R1(config-ext-nacl)# permit udp any any reflect UDP-TRAFFIC

R1(config-ext-nacl)# permit icmp any any reflect ICMP-TRAFFIC

R1(config-ext-nacl)# deny ip any any

R1(config)# ip access-list extended EVALUATE-INBOUND

R1(config-ext-nacl)# evaluate TCP-TRAFFIC

R1(config-ext-nacl)# evaluate UDP-TRAFFIC

R1(config-ext-nacl)# evaluate ICMP-TRAFFIC

R1(config)# interface serial 0/0/0

R1(config-if)# ip access-group OUTBOUND-TRAFFIC out

R1(config-if)# ip access-group EVALUATE-INBOUND in

Time-Based ACL

R-1(config)# time-range MON-WED-FRI

R-1(config-time-range)# periodic Monday Wednesday Friday 8:00 to 17:00

R-1(config)# access-list 133 permit tcp 192.168.20.0 0.0.0.255 any eq telnet time-range MON-WED-FRI

R-1# show access-list (see access lists on this router and # of ‘matches’ per line)

R-1# show access-list NAME (see a specific access list and # of ‘matches’ per line)

Configuring DHCP for IPv4

R-1(config)# ip dhcp excluded 172.16.2.1 172.16.2.7 (excluded IP range)

R-1(config)# ip dhcp pool LAN-2 (name this DHCP pool)

R-1(dhcp-config)# network 172.16.2.0 255.255.255.128 (entire network range)

R-1(dhcp-config)# default-router 172.16.2.1 (address on router port)

R-1(dhcp-config)# dns-server 140.198.8.14 (DNS server – can have up to 4)

R-1(dhcp-config)# domain-name MCC.COM (optional domain name)

R-1(dhcp-config)# lease-time 5 (optional - change to 5 day lease, 1 day is default)

!

R-3(config)# interface fastethernet 0/1 (interface for network with DHCP clients)

R-3(config-if)# ip helper-address 192.168.15.2 (address where DHCP server is)

!

R-1# show ip dhcp binding (see what IP addresses are assigned & MAC addresses)

DOS-PROMPT>ipconfig /release (remove dynamically assigned IP information on PC)

DOS-PROMPT>ipconfig /renew (get new IP address from DHCP server)

Configuring DHCP for IPv6 Stateless Address Auto-Configuration (SLAAC)

R1(config)# ipv6 unicast routing (make sure IPv6 is activated)

R1(config)# ipv6 dhcp pool LAN-10-STATELESS (create pool for addresses and DNS)

R1(dhcpv6-config)# dns-server 2001:345:ACAD:F::5 (IPv6 DNS server address)

R1(dhcpv6-config)# domain-name cisco.com (optional domain name)

R1(config)# interface g1/1

R1(config-if)# ipv6 address 2001:A1B5:C13:10::1/64 (configure IPv6 address)

R1(config-if)# ipv6 nd managed-config-flag (enable IPv6 Neighbor Discovery)

R-3(config)# interface fastethernet 0/1 (interface for network with DHCP clients)

R-3(config-if)# ip dhcp relay destination 2001:A123:7CA1::15 (IPv6 DHCP server address)

R1# show ipv6 dhcp pool

R1# show ipv6 dhcp binding

Configure NAT for IPv4

-For both static and dynamic NAT, designate interfaces as inside or outside:

R-1(config)# interface fa0/0 (typically designate all interfaces except the outside one)

R-1(config-if)# ip nat inside (designate this as an inside interface)

R-1(config)# interface serial 0/0/0 (typically there is only one outside interface)

R-1(config-if)# ip nat outside (designate this as an outside interface)

!

-Static NAT requires only one statement. The IP addresses are inside / outside:

R-1(config)# ip nat inside source static 192.168.10.22 73.2.34.137

!

-Dynamic NAT may use a pool of ‘outside addresses’. If you do not use a pool, you will have to use the address on the outside interface. You can use ‘netmask’:

R-1(config)# ip nat pool POOL-NAME 73.2.34.138 73.2.34.143 netmask 255.255.255.248

-or- You may choose to use ‘prefix-length’:

R-1(config)# ip nat pool POOL-NAME 73.2.34.138 73.2.34.143 prefix-length 29

!

-Dynamic NAT requires an ACL to define which internal addresses can be NATted:

R-1(config)# ip access-list standard NAT-ELIGIBLE

R-1(config-std-nacl)# permit 192.168.10.0 0.0.0.255 (include all subnets)

R-1(config-std-nacl)# deny any

!

-Dynamic NAT can use the pool for outside addresses:

R-1(config)# ip nat inside source list NAT-ELIGIBLE pool POOL-NAME

-or- Dynamic NAT can use the pool with overload to share outside addresses:

R-1(config)# ip nat inside source list NAT-ELIGIBLE pool POOL-NAME overload

-or- Dynamic NAT can use the exit interface – almost always will use overload:

R-1(config)# ip nat inside source list NAT-ELIGIBLE interface serial 0/0/0 overload

R-1# show ip nat translations (current translations- dynamic and static)

R-1# show ip nat statistics (see # of active translations, role of interfaces, etc)
