Frame Relay using Cisco WIC

[Jpeanut]

Can frame relay run across the Cisco T1 WIC? For example, WIC-1DSU-T1.

yes, you just have to set the encapsulation to frame-relay. You would basically be running frame-relay encapsulation over a point-to-point link. Make sure that both sides of the link are set up for frame-relay encapsulation. And one side will have to be configured to do the clocking.

routerA

interface serial0/0
encapsulation frame-relay
frame-relay intf-type dce
frame-relay lmi-type ansi (this command needed if both devices are not cisco)

interface s0/0.1 point-to-point
ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.252
frame-relay interface-dlci 16

routerB

interface serial0/0
encapsulation frame-relay
frame-relay lmi-type ansi (both sides must be using same lmil-type, default is cisco)

interface serial0/0.1 point-to-point
ip address 10.1.1.2 255.255.255.252
frame-relay interface-dlci 16

That should get it up and running, let me know.... Erik Rudnick, CCIE No. 9545

Thanks for the info. I'm in the process of ordering parts, so it'll be a bit before I start config'n. Just wanted to be sure I wouldn't waste $s.
