I am trying to configure a 3 router setup with frame relay, and i have run into a rather odd problem.
I configured router 1 as the frame relay router (a 2514) to do frame-relay switching.
interface Serial0
no ip address
encapsulation frame-relay
clockrate 2000000
frame-relay lmi-type ansi
frame-relay intf-type dce
frame-relay route 100 interface Serial1 200
!
interface Serial1
no ip address
encapsulation frame-relay
clockrate 64000
frame-relay lmi-type ansi
frame-relay intf-type dce
frame-relay route 200 interface Serial0 100
I configured router 2 to terminate one of the frame-relay end points (a 2501).
interface Serial0
no ip address
encapsulation frame-relay
frame-relay lmi-type ansi
!
interface Serial0.1 point-to-point
ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0
frame-relay interface-dlci 100
!
interface Serial1
no ip address
!
but when i try to configure the other end point (another 2501) i am unable to use frame-relay commands in the serial interface:
Router_2501b#conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Router_2501b(config)#int s0
Router_2501b(config-if)#frame-relay lmi-type ansi
^
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.
Router_2501b(config-if)#fra?
fras
Router_2501b(config-if)#fra
i have tried a couple of other routers and i am able to run ospf, bgp, eigrp accross those serial interfaces... but it wont let me configure frame relay on that interface. i have tried other interfaces in that router and totally other routers all to the same effect.
thoughts?
thanks in advance,
