If a FRAD is connected to the router, wouldn't he need to use frame relay switching? If so, what does he do with the incoming frame relay encapsulated data when it hits the router with the CIP?
We did something similar a couple of years ago where we used frame relay switching to get from the remote FRAD to a local FRAD, but it was the local FRAD that had the connection to the FEP. Is there a way that he could utilize the CIP connection to the mainframe? I'm assuming the network he desires looks like this: remoteFRAD -------router--------F/R link----------router------CIP In our case, it looked like this; remoteFRAD--------router---------F/R link--------router-----FRAD--------FEP Regards, John >>> "MADMAN" 11/19/01 2:47:49 PM >>> Yes though you seem concerned about the presence of the CIP, the CIP has nothing to do for or against your frame connection.
