Configuring AppleTalk in Frame Relay

[BudT]

I am trying to configure Appletalk on a frame relay circuit and am getting a conflict with the DLCI. Here is my configuration:

interface Serial1
description 512K Frame-Relay to AspenCO
no ip address
ip helper-address 192.168.1.15
no ip directed-broadcast
encapsulation frame-relay
no ip route-cache
no ip mroute-cache
appletalk cable-range 2-2 2.2
appletalk zone Wash D.C.
frame-relay lmi-type ansi
!
interface Serial1.1 point-to-point
ip address 206.0.105.1 255.255.255.0
no ip route-cache
frame-relay interface-dlci 200 IETF

When I try to add the frame relay map it says the the PVC is already assigned.


frame-relay map appletalk 2.10 200 broadcast

What am I do ing wrong?

If this is the only frame circuit you have, the DLCI should be 16 which is the first available DLCI. If not, the provider of the frame circuit should have given you the DLCI number for your end. Maybe both ends if you own both. If the router is complaining about the number then I would guess it's incorrect and someone else ( interface, router etc) is already configured with it.


Here is a sample config from cisco for Appletalk over FR

Configuration for Router 1
interface Serial0
ip address 172.21.59.24 255.255.255.0
encapsulation frame-relay
appletalk cable-range 10-20 18.47
appletalk zone eng
frame-relay map appletalk 18.225 100 broadcast

Configuration for Router 2
interface Serial2/3
ip address 172.21.177.18 255.255.255.0
encapsulation frame-relay
appletalk cable-range 10-20 18.225
appletalk zone eng
clockrate 2000000
frame-relay map appletalk 18.47 100 broadcast

The provider said that one end DLCI was 100 and the other was 200. Because I am using a subinterface Serial1.1 and providing the DLCI infor with "frame-relay interface-dlci 200 IETF" when I try to add appletalk using "frame-relay map appletalk 2.10 200 broadcast" I get a message saying "PVC already assigned to interface Serial1.1".

Hi Bud,
It will give you error because spacifing a Map is equivalnet to Frame-relay interface-dlCi, so once you have created DLCI with the above command and then assign the Assign the map Class It will try to create the PVC which is alrady their and hance you get the givven error message

Well, how do I get around this problem?
