I would say not as trival as it looks. As I emphasized before, spoke to spoke connectivity is the goal. While neither physical interface, nor multipoint interface in the HUB will make spoke to spoke happen. No matter how many "frame-relay map bridge ??? broadcast" is put in. It's neither a spanning tree issue. All ports in all bridges are in forwarding state. Appreciate if anyone can show me a working config (again spoke to spoke) with hub config other than point to point subinterface Yuenme >From: "Ryan Moffett" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: "Ryan Moffett" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: "Yuen Me" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: RE: Transparent Briding over Frame Relay Hub and Spoke >Date: Sun, 28 May 2000 19:54:24 -0400 > >You can configure transparent bridging over Frame Relay point-multipoint >interfaces. > >See: >http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios120/12cgcr/wan_c >/wcfrelay.htm#xtocid2427346 > >Basically, on the point-multipoint subinterface, you need to associate the >DLCI's with a bridge group using the "frame-relay map bridge" command.
