OK so you are saying that you did manage to satisfy your first requirement which is to create a functioning PVC between the 1700s (using the 2600 as a FR switch). Right?
If this is the case, then you seem to need to *resue* this 2600 as a *router* now in order to create "another" PVC between your 1700 and the 2600. In this case you will need to have a DTE-DCE connection beteween the 2 routers because you DO NOT have an intermediate switch between them. You need to use the same DLCI number on both routers and to assign an IP address to the serial interface on the 2600. I don't think you will need the map statements because you are creating a pt-to-pt here. I hope this helps.

[7:36929] Chuck, et. al., I'm working on a scenario that I'm sure many others have already crossed paths with before too, but I'm at a state of confusion. That scenario is this: 2 Routers acting as end-points of a frame-relay network, with a 3rd router acting as the frame switch. 1700R1 --- 2600FR/Sw --- 1700R2 The objective: Create FR P-to-P connection with the two 1700s via the 2600. (This is a no brainer for me.) Create FR connection from 1700's to 2600 {on a different DLCI} that gives access to the "Internet" off of the 2600's Ethernet Interface. (This is the part that I am stuck on.) The simulation is that of two sites that connect to each other via private frame cloud (small PVCs), but also connect to local FR POPs for Internet access. I've read through examples off of CCO, but didn't have any light bulbs suddenly and graciously appear above my head. I believe the way to do such a thing is to configure the following: On 1700R1: int s0.200 point-to-point {ip address 192.168.10.??? --- not sure about this} frame-relay interface-dlci 48 ip routing router rip ver 2 network 192.168.10.0 On 1700R2: int s0.210 point-to-point {ip address 192.168.10.??? --- not sure about this} frame-relay interface-dlci 49 ip routing router rip ver 2 network 192.168.10.0 On 2600: int s0/0 frame-relay map ip 192.168.10.248 48 int s0/1 frame-relay map ip 192.168.10.249 49 int fa0/0 ip address 192.168.10.250 255.255.255.0 ip routing router rip ver 2 network 192.168.10.0 My problem is, even on the FR Switch, after creating the frame map on the interface, and then verifying the ip routing table, I still can't ping (from the console of the frame switch) the interface noted with the frame map... i.e., pinging 192.168.10.248 from the console of same router yields : ..... 0 Success, 5 Failure :( So.... can someone give me some guide/tips as to what I'm doing wrong?!?!
