Hi,

   I have R1-R2 connected by serial link. There are two sub interfaces on each side connecting these two. How do we configure frame relay on these two sub interfaces without disabling keepalive?

Thanks,

Balajee

Hi,

just make one router a frame-relay switch:

R1

enable

config t

frame-relay switching

int s1/0

encapsulation frame-relay

frame-relay intf-type dce

no shut

int s1/0.12

ip address 10.0.0.1 255.0.0.0

frame-relay interface-dlci 201

R2

enable

config t

int s1/0

encapsulation frame-relay

no shut

int s1/0.21

ip address 10.0.0.2 255.0.0.0

frame-relay interface-dlci 201

I just tried this...it didn't work. Can you please let me know if it works for you?

Hi,

sorry I posted the config quickly and forgot something:

for each subinterface you must specify if it is multipoint or point-to-point before you can configure it

int s1/0.12 multipoint or  int s1/0.12 point-to-point for example
