Re: Frame Relay Switch [7:75019]
Hi, guys: Why not consider 2523 i/o 2522 ? In the hardware spec, Cisco 2523 is the same as 2522, all the difference is 2523 is Token-Ring based, In eBay, you could find out that R2523 is cheaper than R2522, For the cost issues, I would suggest the 2523. If the cost/price is not the issues, maybe you could consider 4500/4700M+ with NP-4Ts, 4500/4700 has more horsepower than 2522/2523...

Re: Frame Relay Switch [7:75019]
Sure, you could use an older 7000 series router with 8 serial interfaces. You could also use a 2523. there is also a module for 26xx/36xx routers called an NM-8A/S which would also work. However the best solution is a 2522 or 2523. Old 7000 series routers are really big, extremely loud, and use lots of power. thanks, -Brad Ellis CCIE#5796 (RS / Security) Network Learning Inc [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.optsys.net (Cisco hardware) Devraj, Prem wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi Larry, I want to connect 8 port for a LAB Scenario which I have.

RE: Frame Relay Back To Back Static PVC [7:72869]
Thanks Alex but when your routers are going back to back LMIs are turned off with the no keepalive command. I believe because a Frame switch is not involved in creating the PVC. In any case I updated the IOS image to 12.3.1a on both routers and the connection comes back up without any issues even after being unplugged and reconnected.

Zsombor, interesting observation. I will have to check it; there may have been an IOS change. I _know_ I've run out of buffers on 2500s under IOS 11x by assigning too many p2p subinterfaces.

I mean the split horizon can be turned off on the hub multipoint interface. this is a fascinating question to me. I wonder if the real reason different people prefer different approaches is more a personality thing than a real design thing. I prefer P2P subinterfaces, because at heart I think in terms of a wire that goes from here to there. I ususally do numbering schemes that have an internal logic to them and P2P is easier for me to deal with in terms of this logic. you are correct that split horizon can be turned off. You can make adjustments within any routing protocol execpt maybe for IS-IS either way. I guess in my case, I like things to be simple, and the more configuration I have to do, the more subtleties I have to worry about, the less I like it because it starts becoming work ;- I'd be curious what some other folks who do a lot of network installation think. Over the past few years I've sold quite a few smaller networks, all hub and spoke, and mostly frame relay types ( although lately that has changed to more RLAN - ATM to DSL ) In every case I have done things the subinterface way because I personally believe it is easier to document and easier to troubleshoot.

A basic such example would be bandwidth matching the CIR if all CIR's are not the same. Spoke-specific access lists would be another. Routing configuration generally is easier. You also get finer granularity for SNMP, accounting, etc. P2M might slightly conserve IP addresses, but, more significantly, it conserves Interface Descriptor Blocks (IDB) and interface buffers in the IOS. In some respects, it's more intuitive, although the routing configuration is more complex. wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Guys, Very quick one here.

RE: Frame-relay HSRP [7:72166]
I have seen this problem before with frame. LMI being local to the frame switch means the interface does not go down and backups routes do not kick in. One way to overcome this is to monitor layer 2 by using the #8220;frame-relay end-to-end keepalive mode bidirectional#8221; command within a map class on both sides. This command sends a keepalive every 15 seconds, if 3 are missed the interface will change to down/down even though the interface is receiving LMI from the frame switch. I hope this helps.

RE: Frame-relay HSRP [7:72166]
Ahh yes.. you can do this also.. pending you have 12.0(5)T or later. The only issue with that is you might want to modify the frame-relay end-to-end keepalive timer As you stated, Within the 15 second intervals x3 you are looking at a good 45 seconds before the WAN interface goes down down ,plus another 10 for the HSRP holdtimer. mccloud mike wrote: I have seen this problem before with frame.

RE: Frame-relay HSRP [7:72166]
When you have a FR connection, you have a dedicated circuit to your provider which then on taps into the frame cloud. So consider it alomost like a point-to-point link to your local Carrier and then from there you connect within the providers Frame Switch into their Frame Relay cloud. Now, when you shutdown R1's Wan interface your HSRP failed over fine. The reason that R3 was showing Up Up was that your circuit to your carrier from R3 did not go down and it stil exhanges LMI with R3's Physical interface, your PVC should have been showing INACTIVE at this point though. I would recommend using point-to-point subinterfaces on your FR WAN connections. When you do this and then shut down one end of the link the line protocol on the sub-interface of R3 would go UP DOWN and if you then track the SUB-Interface, you should have a successful failover for the Standby Track command on R3. Currently, you have outboud traffic going out R2 ---R4 and return traffic going to the Active HSRP router R3 then dropping packets because your PVC is INACTIVE and you are in an UP UP state.. You have successfully achieved Asymetrical routing.. :( Until your Interface Line protocol Drops in an UP DOWN state on R3's WAN interface.. then Standby Interface tracking wont do anything..

Re: Frame Relay over IP [7:70927]
I am tryin to use Frame relay switching over IP. Not IP over frame relay. If we can do that we can connect two sites that are connected over IP from L2 point of view. Frame Relay Frame Relay over IP is not yet readily available. The draft IETF specification was produced in March 2001. This has not left much time for industry take-up. Frame Relay over IP would probably appeal only to the carrier market in any case. Carriers may embrace this to reduce their frame relay network costs. It is unlikely to find widespread deployment at all, although it may see limited use towards the end of this year. It should hold little attraction for enterprise companies- where is the benefit of adding another layer of complexity when they can engineer and migrate to an IP VPN instead?

Setting up a frame-relay cloud; Router A needs to connect to Router B, DLCIs are given. Disable inverse-arp and install frame-relay map statements and vice versa. Router A tries to ping to Router B, nothing, dead. Had a quick look at the DLCIs coming into the interface - sure enough, the DLCI number is there, both sides see their respective DLCIs. So I enable inverse-arp and take out the map statements. Ping Router B and yes it sees it, so the link and cables are fine. Clear inarp cache and install map statements, disable inarp. Nothing Double check the frame switch, looks ok. Disable inarp and reboot the Router. Install map statements, ping Router B, nothing. Ping again, nothing, wait, nothing. Go have a cup of coffee, come back 20 minutes later. Ping Router B, it working. So, now one hour wasted on one pvc... Is there something or some sequence that I missed here?

hi ching, first i must say, that an LL, is most cost effective when the locations ur connecing are close in proxemity. FR will cost you less if the location if far away. for the location that has bursty traffic, you can either get a 0cir link, which doe't cost alot, but the amount of traffic should be meassured before of course, and the SLA from the provider should be checked. finally you can always get an ISDN or simply an async connection configured with DDR.

RE: Frame Relay Design/Bandwidth Question [7:65401]
FR relay is quiet effective, especially with hub and multi-spoke deployemnts. One of the big advantages as well, reducing interface costs on the Hub end, as you onely have one serial interface with multiple FR PVC's? A further solution is to have a xDSL / Cable installation at the remote sites, and then vpn them to the hub route, or even VPN mesh them to each other and the HUB. It really depends on what sort of traffic flows you are expecting. Say for exampled you had a remote office that browsed the web etc, but need to connect back to the hub for internal services such as customer database / internal collabrative servers etc, then havbing a local break out, with VPN would be ok This would also reduce the dependency of the spokes on the hub for internet connectivity and would be able to run a degraded service should the hub fail. If all the spokes are doing si connecting back to the Hub, eg terminal services (SNA, TN3270 etc) Dear All, At first, I have 2 locations so I choose leased line (128k) to connect together.

RE: frame relay and leased line [7:65397]
FR is usefull when youhave hub and spoke deployments. By making use of shared circuit your bandwidth costs are normally a lot less thatn Leased lines. Another solution would possibl the use of VPN. WIth the price of broadband coming down, you could probably have a broadband connection at the remote site and then VPN back to the hub. This would add the benefit that the spoke would not be reliant on the hub for internet connectivity. Also depends on what sort of data is going to flow beetween the two sites, If you have high priority traffic, and your spokes dont require internet connectivity or similar, then I would use FR. supernet wrote: I was told that leased line price depends on distance but frame relay doesn't.

RE: Frame-Relay issue [7:63446]
There's obviously no good answer to why there are no problems bringing the link up/up when you type in the commands one by one but there are problems when you copy and paste them. Here are some suggestions, though: 1) You work for Cisco. Report it as a bug. 2) The copy and paste is corrupting a character, forgetting to do carriage return or something of that nature. Do all the commands end up the in the running config? 3) There's some sort of timing issue. To fix the problem: Don't do copy and paste that fast. :-) Priscilla Monu Sekhon wrote: Hi Mark, Thanx for reply.but I mentioned that when we do shut no shut again link comes up.no dlci, no lmi problem: I am testing in lab setup two rouetrs connnected to frame-relay cloud Please do help anybody in this regard, why the link doesnot come at one instant why it requiers again shut and no shut, when i copy paste the config and when i give command by command then without gving shut and noshut the link comes up.

Re: frame relay lmi-n39x functions [7:63120]
Hi Jens, Thanks for the information. What confused me is this url: http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios121/121cgcr/wan_c/wcdfrely.htm#46235 It states The only visible indication to the user that LMI autosense is underway is when debug frame lmi is turned on. Every N391 interval, the user will now see three rapid status enquiries coming out of the serial interface. One in ANSI, one in ITU and one in cisco LMI-type. It behaves differently from what i saw. when interface just becomes up/up, three status requests are sent, but after that, only one status request is sent, which doesn't match what is described above.

From Milwaukee why is Greenbay's ping response times almost 3 times faster than Madisons? Wouldn't Milwaukee being the bottle neck of 128k port rate make both ping response times closer to the same? The Milwaukee router would be a bottleneck if you were sending more traffic than the 128 Kbps interface can send. Once you start sending more than 128 Kbps, then the Milwaukee router has to start queuing packets, which would introduce some delay. For the delay to be noticeable, you would have to be doing quite a bit more than 128 Kbps. For it to be definitely noticable, you would need to exceed the queue depth, resulting in dropped and retransmitted packets. Does the router show that it is dropping any packets? What does the router say the load on the serial interface is? Where are the pings originating? What ping tool are you using? How much bandwidth can it use? Are delays being introduced between your ping station and the serial interface? For example, are they going across swithces or a shared Ethernet segment? My guess is that you aren't using 128 Kbps. Let's say that you are, though. Because Frame Relay is a packet-switched network, packets could be queuing up more in the path to Madison compared to the path to Greenbay. Also, of course, the egress FR relay switch in Greenbay can whip out the packets much faster than the egress switch in Madison which has just a 128 Kbps link, compared to the T1 link in Greenbay. So, it might seem odd that packets can pick up speed, but due to the queuing at routers and switches in the path, they can. They might get jumbled up at some point, but then whipped out at 1.544 Mbps at another point. I hope that explanation isn't too confusing and I hope you're not freezing there in Wisconsin! :-) Priscilla Or is this like the highway theory of Greenbay has a Full T1 most of the way so you can go faster on that portion of the drive therefore the ping response times are much faster??

Re: frame relay config [7:61757]
From what i can find, you will need to configure the interface as an NNI, and then you frame-relay switch between 2 pvc you have on the router. the problem is that subinterfaces are not supported by an NNI interface. it can only be implemented on the main interface so u will need 2 serial interfaces for your 2 pvc that you will configure independently Frame-relay switching int se 0 encapsulation frame-relay frame-relay intf-type nni frame-relay interface-dlci 101 frame-relay route 101 interface serial 2 201 int se 1 encapsulation frame-relay ip address x.x.x.x frame-relay lmi-type ansi frame-relay interface-dlci 301 int se 2 encapsulation frame-relay ietf frame-relay interface-dlci 201 frame-relay lmi-type ansi frame-relay intf-type nni frame-relay route 201 interface serial 0 101 I should tell u that i have not tried this, i don't really have the time, but it might just work, you can achive the same thing, but differently with the need to do frame switching by using simple a policy based routing, which are quit easy to configure. hope the above helps regards Julian P a icrit dans le message de news: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi I want to configure my 2610 for frame relay into my telco.

actually come to think about it, u don't have the conditions for NNI switching, u can't even do Hybrid switching, if the PVC through witch u wana switch is DTE, i see only the option of frame switching over an ip tunnel, but then again u have to have an ip segment available: as far as configuration goes it will be easy, check it out: u might be able to do this int se 0 ip address x.x.x.x encapsulation frame-relay frame-relay route 101 interface tunnel 1 201 int tunnel1 ip address x.x.x.x tunnel source x.x.x.x tunnel destination x.x.x.x the tunnel must be configured at the other end not all versions support switching to a tunnel, u will need to look it up oh yeah here is a link that some info about the switching ways that cisco supports: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/iosswrel/ps1818/products_configuratio n_guide_chapter09186a00800878c7.html hope the above helps regards Juntao a icrit dans le message de news: [EMAIL PROTECTED] From what i can find, you will need to configure the interface as an NNI, and then you frame-relay switch between 2 pvc you have on the router. the problem is that subinterfaces are not supported by an NNI interface. it can only be implemented on the main interface so u will need 2 serial interfaces for your 2 pvc that you will configure independently Frame-relay switching int se 0 encapsulation frame-relay frame-relay intf-type nni frame-relay interface-dlci 101 frame-relay route 101 interface serial 2 201 int se 1 encapsulation frame-relay ip address x.x.x.x frame-relay lmi-type ansi frame-relay interface-dlci 301 int se 2 encapsulation frame-relay ietf frame-relay interface-dlci 201 frame-relay lmi-type ansi frame-relay intf-type nni frame-relay route 201 interface serial 0 101 I should tell u that i have not tried this, i don't really have the time, but it might just work, you can achive the same thing, but differently with the need to do frame switching by using simple a policy based routing, which are quit easy to configure. hope the above helps regards Julian P a icrit dans le message de news: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi I want to configure my 2610 for frame relay into my telco.

Re: frame relay stumper [7:60567]
Sounds like a possible carrier frame-relay switch mapping mishap. Maybe they added/changed some DLCIs to their switches and mucked up your PVC/DLCI mappings. Do you see CDP neighbor info over this DLCI (sub-interface) if CDP is enabled? That would indicate broadcast traffic is getting across the PVC end to end. Another idea would to clear the counters and do a ping test and see if other site PVC stats saw a increase in input packets relative to amount of ping traffic. Get on the horn with the carrier and have them verify the PVC mapping end to end, and verify the DLCI #s they have in their switches are the ones you are using still. Stay on the phone when they do this. Also, they may pass it off to some other intermediate carrier who has it messed up. The carrier can also monitor the PVC/DLCI traffic while you do some ping, data tests -- see if they see traffic being sent and received. Do a large 1500 byte ping for like a count of 200 just to get some data flowing while they look at it. If you have newer IOS, (12.03T and higher) you can try the Frame Relay End to End Keepalive (FREEK) feature too. This will force the DLCI/pvc down and sub-interface down if the keepalive packets aren't seen at other site. This probably isn't going to get you much but might show the smallish FREEK packet is getting across. Just another test similar to CDP packet test.

Hi Deepak, The answer to you question what I feel is as follows. Its not that after full congestion only Frame-relay Switch starts setting bit FECN or BECN.When ever the traffic rate exceeds the threshold value some percentage of it Then the switch informs the sender/reciver that it should decrease the sending rate.Its not that link is fully congested then only it will send before hand it takes proactive action .

Re: Frame Relay Definition [7:57439]
Good timing - we just had this conversation a couple of weeks ago. :-) There's a difference between a protocol being connection-oriented and it being reliable. The two are not related. Frame Relay is connection-oriented in that it establishes a connection between endpoints *before* any data is sent. However, Frame Relay is unreliable in that it does not perform any checks to make sure that every frame sent is received by the other end. Frame Relay relies on upper-layer protocols (eg TCP) to perform this function.

Two books I've read say it is connection-oriented. But they also say there is no guarantee of delivery, best effort, etc. I thought the difference between connection-oriented vs. connectionless was pretty clear cut, so this seems to be contradictory. One book said something vague about the virtual circuits making it connection-oriented. Can anyone make sense of this? Thanks.

RE: Frame Relay [7:56953]
Rich, No, you are not missing anything - NBMA without neighbor statements over serial links SHOULD not work and in most cases, won't. Welcome to my world! Chances are that you experiencing EpisodeOSPF the Phantom neighbor I have fought this for over 6 months while studying. The dead interval keeps renewing and the neighbors SEEM to be up, but, if you clear the OSPF process or reload the routers, the connections should die - even before you reload the routers the routes should have been unreachable - EXCEPT in the case of another connection between the routers. Another OSPF goodie! If you have an ehternet or other broadcast connection, as well as the NBMA serial link the little hellos for the NBMA connections piggyback on the broadcast connection and bring up the neighbors anyway (even if in different areas! and a traceroute will show a direct connection!)in this case the neighbors remain after clearing or reloading and are reachable. (This behavior is probably not OEM design) Just two of many OSPF quirks! You have the concept! keep your eye on the prize!

we use mrtg (a freely available network monitoring tool) for a multi-site frame network. we don't own the routers or have legitimate password access to them (our vendor provides as part of the service) so we had the vendor set up an snmp community string (read only) and an access control list on each of the frame routers provided, allowing access by a couple of monitor stations on our network. it has come in very handy. i'm not at work right now but if interested i can send a sanitized version of the config file we use for mrtg (which shows the mibs accessed). thanks. - Original Message - From: YASSER ALY To: Sent: Saturday, October 19, 2002 12:17 AM Subject: RE: Frame relay circuit speed from IOS?

DU Meter can show download speeds either way in kilobits per second (kbps) or kilobytes per second (which I think they abbreviate as KB), depending on which report or graph you are looking at. Throughput measurements will generally be quite less than the raw capacity of a circuit. That's because they take into account the bytes and time used for: Headers Inter-frame gaps ACKs Turn-around time at the client Turn-around time at the server To determine if this circuit is healthy, do a show interface.

Scott Keagy's Integrating Voice and Data Networks (Cisco Press) was great for frame relay traffic shaping. map-class frame-relay theframeclass {Do not use the command frame-relay fragment , as this is recommended to reduce serialization delay for speeds of 768K or less.} frame-relay mincir out 1536 {This is the provisioned CIR assigned by service provider} frame-relay cir out 1536 {Technically, this is higher than min CIR, since traffic can be sustained at a higher rate thats CIR. But make CIR=Minimum CIR here.} frame-relay be out 0 {Set excess burst to 0 since we dont want to burst over CIR for voice.} frame-relay bc out 15360 {Set committed burst, which is 15360 bits, or 1/100 of CIR (1536K CIR). This makes serialization delay=10ms, a reasonable value. Serialization Delay = frame size (bits) / link bandwidth (bps).} no frame-relay adaptive-shaping {Turn off because we do not want the frame relay circuit to throttle back. If the router receives BECNs on the interface, the router would start to throttle back to the Min CIR value. This is why we turn it off and lock the Min CIR to the actual CIR value.} service-policy output thepolicy {attach policy here for the queuing. If you dont put a policy here, frame relay traffic shaping defaults to FIFO. In that case, you would override with the preferred frame-relay fair-queue.} - Jennifer Mellone Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7i=55434t=55432 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Frame Relay: connectionless or connection-orie [7:54747]
Howard, I would like to hear your brief arguement on X.25 Fast Select as a connectionless protocol. In (a paltry) defense of it being a connection-oriented, doesn't the fast select option allow for data transfer in the control packets? Just curious as to your input here and sort of playing devil's advocate. Thanks!

RE: Frame Relay: connectionless or connection-oriented? [7:54707]
Some documentation may say that it's connection oriented because you have to set up a PVC (or an SVC) so you pre-establish a connection. But in fact it's connectionless, since it doesn't have, like you say, a retransmission system or error checking mechanism like TCP. And the terms connection oriented and connectionless, refer to the protocol, not to the circuit. Peter -Original Message- From: B.J.

Frame-Relay is connection-oriented because of the establishment of virtual circuits, that is, before any packet transfer, there is already an established path. Hope this helps.

FR is connection-oriented (without user-controlled connection and disconnection phases) as far as its topology. That refers to the endpoints, remembering FR is an access rather than a backbone protocol. FR does not do error correction. Just because something is connection-oriented doesn't mean it does error correction. FR does do error detection and a primitive form of congestion notification.

RE: Frame Relay: connectionless or connection-orie [7:54707]
Well, I tend to look at things from a global or Layer 1 through 7 perspective: does Frame Relay perform the same functions that TCP does? In other words, does it perform a check to make sure every single IP packet (or Frame Relay frame) makes it from the ingress point of the Frame cloud to the egress point? I don't believe it does, and therefore I consider it connectionless. Now, from a *test* perspective (g...), I suppose the correct answer is connection-oriented due to the reasons that Peter specified.

RE: Frame Relay: connectionless or connection-orie [7:54707]
Thinking of the subject again, I would have to come back to what I've said before. TCP is connection oriented because there's the three-way handshake session establishment. It's reliable because of the retransmission and error checking mechanismns. UDP is connectionless, because there's no session establishment and it's unreliable because of a lack of retransmission and error checking mechanismns. Frame relay is connection oriented because of the establishment of a circuit, but unreliable because there are no retransmission and error checking mechanismns. X25 is connection oriented and reliable. Peter -Original Message- From: B.J.

RE: Frame Relay: connectionless or connection-orie [7:54707]
Well said. I'm glad you corrected yourself. ;-) Frame Relay is connection-oriented. An end point can't send data until a virtual circuit has been established. But it doesn't offer a reliable service. If a frame arrives damaged, the recipient knows this (because the FCS doesn't match the sender's), but the recipient simply drops the frame. An upper layer, such as TCP, would have to notice the lack of ACK and retransmit. Frame Relay does error detection, but no error correction. ___ Priscilla Oppenheimer www.troubleshootingnetworks.com www.priscilla.com Peter van der Voort wrote: Thinking of the subject again, I would have to come back to what I've said before.
