frame-relay switching

[jresendizz]

Hi guys!

Just one question, i have a router, with 2 serials with frame-relay on it (working as DTE), and other serial with HDLC, but in order to configure QoS on a 4th. serial, i`ve got to configure frame-relay switching on this other serial...my question is...does this affect the other serial interfaces?

I need to add something like this:

!

frame-relay switching

!

interface Serial0/1

description xxxxxxxx

no ip address

encapsulation frame-relay

frame-relay traffic-shaping

frame-relay intf-type dce

!

Thanks!!

Here's a link regarding FR Switching:

The above link has a 'hybrid' example that implies this is possible. I seem to recall successfully trying this in a lab environment, but maybe someone else can confirm.

Good Luck!

I've got a 2523 that I use as a frame-relay switch, and as regular HDLC connections to other routers. The frame-relay switching command just seems to allow you to use the fram-relay route command. Without frame-relay switching, the router wwill not allow you to use frame-relay route.

HTH,
