Hi David, PPP or HDLC will work back to back with a cross-over cable as you have it. You may need to set one side of the connection for internal clocking as Paul has stated.
For frame-relay, you need to set one side as the DCE which can't currently be done via the CLI. You'll need to edit the /etc/wanpipe/wanpipe1.conf file by changing the "Station" value to "Station = NODE" and changing the "SIGNALLING" value from auto to something else like ANSI - ex: "SIGNALLING = ansi". This value should be listed under the [wan0.fr] section of the wanpipe conf file. Once you've edited this file, you'll need to run the command 'wanrouter restart' from the bash shell. An enhancement has been created to add this feature to the CLI: https://bugzilla.vyatta.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2253 Thanks, Robyn virtualsystems-org wrote: > David, > > Years ago when I used to do these back-to-back configs on Cisco gear, I > had to apply internal clock source to bring the T1/E1 up.
