Hello,
I would like to become better at configuring frame-relay on cisco routers, however I have no frame-relay wan connection to use.. I was wondering if it is possible to simulate frame-relay from one router, and then configure it on the other.. kinda like in a back-to-back environment.
If it is possible, what would I need - and where could I find more information about this topic.
Many thanks in advance,

Below is the URL for back to back FR config:

I think you need at least 3 routers to get the purpose, one router works as the frame-relay switch and the other two are connected with the frame-relay switch respectively. You need two serial ports on the switch.
On the switch, you need configure it as a real FR switch, something like this:
frame-relay switching
!
!
interface Serial0/0
no ip address
no ip directed-broadcast
encapsulation frame-relay
no ip mroute-cache
frame-relay intf-type dce
frame-relay route xyz interface Serial1/1 zyx
!
on the two routers, you can try to practice frame-relay by use frame-relay map command.
Hope that will give you some hint.
