Hi Diva, I feel I need some more information on this..
1. Are all 4 nodes part of the same network, i.e., are the India and UK end nodes back connected? 2. Are they having just 1 IPLC each? 3. If they are having more than 1 IPLC, are you running PNNI or some other routing protocol on them, or have you done some static mapping? 4. Do you mean to say that you have 2 routers running HSRP and they are attached to different FRSMs on FR? And then on in case of one IPLC going down you want the traffic to route through the other IPLC? On the last point, as per me it would be better to connect your MGX nodes to each other locally at both the locations and then by running PNNI end-to-end you can route your traffic in case of IPLC failures, and more so if both the nodes are sitting close by. For your traffic routing you can rely upon on some IP routing features.

I have two MGX8850s in India on to which one IPLC each are getting connected to the PXm1-e1 card.The other end of the IPLC s are connected similarly to two MGX8850s in UK. We have a FRSM card on each of the MGXs .We have 4 cisco 3745 routers connected using a pair of DTE and DCE cables. The serial interface is configured for framerelay.I have not created any subinterfaces on the serial interface for framelrelay. The routers are configured with HSRP. I would like the HSRP to track the changes in the status of the IPLC and switch over the HSRP active router. Right now, when the IPLc goes down, the FRSM card still shows up and the router serial interfaces shows line protocol up.Thus HSRP , which is tracking the serial interface still assumes that the link is up and hence will not change the state. My objective is :--- The serial interface connected to the FRSM on the MGX should be able to know when the IPLC connected to PXM1-e1 goes down.And the HSRp which is tracking the serial interface should change the state .

As per me, as soon the IPLC or the trunk link on the MGX goes down, it will also make the FR connection down, and same will be reflected on the PVC status in router also. So that should serve your purpose, but then what is your interface configuration, are you using sub-interface or the PVC is configured on to the main interface itself. Let us know about your core objective and some more information, and then may be things take some new turn.

The MGX8850 also has a FRSM-HS2 card using which a router is connected to each of the MGX8850s. How do we let the router's serial interface know that the IPLC is down? As of now , even if the IPLC is down, the serial interface show line protocol up. IS there any way by which we can let the Router's serial interface know that the IPLC connected to the MGX8850 is down?
