Usually this indicates problem with encapsulation or hardware (interface or cable).
1. Check on the frame-relay router, if you are using right encapsulation: frame-relay IETF !!! 2. Try switch to the second serial interface on your the router and see if the problem persist. 3. Try using HDLC encapsulation (the default one) and connect the serial interface to the router with a good serial interface. (Don't forget to set up clock rate on one of the end with DCE cable!!!) Debug interface: #debug serial interface The myseq, mineseen and yourseen should read the same. If not try using different cable. If the line protocol still goes up/down you have bad Serial interface on your router.

If i leave the the keepalive to 10 sec, the line protocol on the serial 0/1 keeps coming up but going down after a couple of seconds. The only way i can keep the line protocol up is (no keepalive) on seial 0/1. Iam not sure whether this is the best way of sorting out this problem.Here is the current config on this serial port Serial0/1 is up, line protocol is up Hardware is PowerQUICC Serial MTU 1500 bytes, BW 1544 Kbit, DLY 20000 usec, reliability 255/255, txload 1/255, rxload 1/255 Encapsulation FRAME-RELAY IETF, loopback not set Keepalive not set Broadcast queue 0/64, broadcasts sent/dropped 96/227, interface broadcasts 96 Last input 00:00:17, output 00:00:12, output hang never Last clearing of "show interface" counters 01:26:53 Input queue: 0/75/0/0 (size/max/drops/flushes); Total output drops: 0 Queueing strategy: weighted fair Output queue: 0/1000/64/0 (size/max total/threshold/drops) Conversations 0/2/256 (active/max active/max total) Reserved Conversations 0/0 (allocated/max allocated) 5 minute input rate 0 bits/sec, 0 packets/sec 5 minute output rate 0 bits/sec, 0 packets/sec 11467 packets input, 876671 bytes, 0 no buffer Received 0 broadcasts, 0 runts, 0 giants, 0 throttles 33 input errors, 0 CRC, 33 frame, 0 overrun, 0 ignored, 0 abort 11125 packets output, 799491 bytes, 0 underruns 0 output errors, 0 collisions, 45 interface resets 0 output buffer failures, 0 output buffers swapped out 2 carrier transitions DCD=up DSR=up DTR=up RTS=up CTS=up Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=42359&t=42350 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
