To see any real issues with NBMA networks and OSPF you need a minimum of three FR routers and one FR switch (or router acting as a switch). Generally you use the "frame-relay interface-dlci" command when the router has only one DLCI number (PVC) and you use the frame-relay map ip" command when you have multiple DLCI's numbers. So on a p2p connection use the frame-relay interface-dlci command and on a multipoint or NBMA mode connection use the frame-relay map ip command. There are exceptions to this rule, however this is generally correct. The reason that both work for you now is that you have to have more frame routers inorder to properly test this. If you are using p2multipoint mode then the router should not let you enter the frame-relay interface-dlci command, only the frame-relay map ip command would be allowed.
