Usually "Protocol Down, Link Up" indicates that you have mismatched
encapsulation, LMI-Type, or even incorrect IP Addressing (wrong Subnet
or incorrect Subnet Mask) between your end and the other end of the FR
Network.

If no LMI is exchanged, then the LMI-Type is incorrect between that
Serial Interface and the Service Provider Frame Switch.

If this is a Frame Relay LAB setup, double-check your Frame Relay
"Switch" configuration.

If this is a Production Setup, contact your ISP and verify your Frame
Relay configuration parameters. (LMI-Type, DLCI, etc.)


On the No Shut command, I'd use it last on each interface you configure.

Hi Larry/John,
I forgot to mention no shut in the above confif while writing here,
Its still there and connection does not come out
See I mentioned that while giving command by command manually connection
comes out.
It seems to me that while the interface is down during that frame-relay
LMIs
think that interface is down and make the link down.
I am rather confused.I dont know but this is happening.

again writing config:
----------
interface Serial0 
shut (if i give here no shut then link comes up at one go) 
encapsulation frame-relay 
frame-relay lmi-type cisco 
no shut
exit 
interface Serial0/0.1 point-to-point 
no shutdown 
ip address 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.0 
frame-relay interface-dlci 108 
exit 


and also John try these in your router but at one go the interface will
not
come up as far i know .I agree with ur confguration and mine is also
correct
.Its said by Prisicilla and others that shutting a interface is  good
practise while  configuring encap types.This i read in one of the
previous
Posts.
so can u all reply what is the problem here
in show ip interface it shows as protocol down , physical link up.
sh frame-relay pvs shows as inactive.no lmi are exchanged.
any help will be appreciated.
