Introduction
You are the systems administrator for your company, Happy Acres Growers, Inc Throughout your tenure with the company, you have expressed your interest in the data communications side of the IT house You often queried the manager of network services for any openings in the department, and tried to show the knowledge that you have gained through self-study After many months of effort, you hear opportunity knocking
The company is planning to implement a Frame Relay hub-and-spoke network connecting all of its growers' sites to the corporate headquarters The network manager feels that his department has too many projects to spare any time for this one He will need to hire an additional engineer You have been offered an opportunity to move from your systems position into a slot on the network team, if you can demonstrate to the network manager that you have an understanding of Frame Relay concepts and the ability to configure Cisco routers for Frame Relay connections You decide to set up a home lab and get some practice before your meeting with the network manager
The first thing you need to do is create a basic Frame Relay network using your 3 Cisco 2501 access routers The routers have host names of R1, R2, and R3 Here is what you decide to do:
Set-up Items
1 Connect each of the routers with back-to-back cables
2 Configure router R2 to act as a Frame Relay switch
3 Configure the Frame Relay switch to advertise DLCI 102 on interface s0 and 201 on interface s1, and to route frames between the two interfaces
This is the Lab Scenario for the second edition
of the CertificationZone CCNA WAN Protocols
Issue
There is an additional Lab Scenario on the
subject See the 1999-12 CCNA Lab Scenario
on Wan Protocols
Trang 24 Configure the remaining two routers for Frame Relay connections Allow them to use Inverse ARP to detect the DLCIs
5 Configure an IP address of 10.10.10.1/24 on R1 and 10.10.10.2/24 on R3
6 Verify connectivity across the Frame Relay link using the ping command
7 Examine Frame Relay LMI activity on router R1
8 Examine the state of the PVCs on each R1 and on R2
Solution
Configuring the Physical Connectivity
a Connect the DTE end of a Cisco back-to-back cable to the
s0 interface of R1
b Connect the other end of this cable to the s0 interface of
R2
c Connect the DTE end of another back-to-back cable to the
s1 interface of R2
d Connect the other end of the cable to the s0 interface of R3
Configuring the Frame Relay Switching Function
(Set-up item 2)
Configure R2 to act as a Frame Relay switch Follow these steps:
a login to the router, and enter Privileged Exec mode
R2>enable
password:*******
R2#
b Enter Global Configuration mode
R2#conf t
c Enable Frame Relay switching
R2(config)#frame-relay switching
d Configure each interface for Frame Relay encapsulation
R2(config)#int s0
R2(config-if)#encapsulation frame-relay
R2(config-if)#int s1
R2(config-if)#encapsulation frame-relay
e Configure the router to provide a clockrate of 56 Kbps
R2(config-if)#clockrate 56000
f Configure the LMI type on each serial interface
You can tell if a DTE or a DCE plug is inserted
into a given serial interface with the show
controller serial x where x is the interface
number Another way to tell if a DCE plug is connected is that only DCE interfaces will
accept a clockrate command clockrate and
bandwidth are independent commands, can
have different values, and appear both on DTE and DCE interfaces
Trang 3R2(config-if)#frame-relay lmi-type ansi
R2(config-if)#int s0
R2(config-if)#frame-relay lmi-type ansi
g Configure each serial interface to act as DCE
R2(config-if)#frame-relay intf-type dce
R2(config-if)#int s1
R2(config-if)#frame-relay intf-type dce
(Set-up item 3)
h Configure each serial interface to route incoming frames to the
other serial interface
R2(config-if)#frame-relay route 201 interface Serial0 102
R2(config-if)#int s0
R2(config-if)#frame-relay route 102 interface Serial1 201
Configuring the Frame Relay Access Routers
(Set-up items 4 and 5)
Configure R1 for Frame Relay operation Follow the steps below:
a Enter Interface Configuration mode for R1's interface s0
Configure Frame Relay encapsulation
R1(config-if)#encapsulation frame-relay
b Configure the LMI type
R1(config-if)#frame-relay lmi-type ansi
c Assign IP addresses to the s0 interfaces on routers R1
R1(config-if)#ip address 10.10.10.1 255.255.255.0
d Enter Interface Configuration mode for R3's interface s0 Configure Frame Relay encapsulation
R3(config-if)#encapsulation frame-relay
e Configure the LMI type
R3(config-if)#frame-relay lmi-type ansi
f Assign IP addresses to the s0 interfaces on router R3
R3(config-if)#ip address 10.10.10.2 255.255.255.0
Testing Connectivity
(Set-up item 6)
Save your configs on each router, then test for connectivity across the Frame Relay link using the ping command
Extra Credit Challenge
How can you repeat the command with the least amount of typing?
Answer: Use the up arrow to repeat commands
Tip
You've done quite a bit of configuration An intermediate "save" here would be
conservative practice
Trang 4a Save configs using the copy running-configuration
startup-configuration command on each router:
R1#copy run start
R2#copy run start
R3#copy run start
b Test for connectivity across the Frame Relay link using the ping
command on routers R1 and R3
R1#ping 10.10.10.2
Type escape sequence to abort
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 10.10.10.2,
timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5),
round-trip min/avg/max = 64/67/68 ms
R3#ping 10.10.10.1
Type escape sequence to abort
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 10.10.10.1,
timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5),
round-trip min/avg/max = 64/67/68 ms
(Set-up item 7)
Examine the LMI activity on R1
a Examine the output of the following command:
R1#debug frame-relay lmi
Frame Relay LMI debugging is on

Note:
write memory is an earlier name for the same
command as copy run start, but Cisco has said it will eventually drop support for write
mem You might find a very old IOS version
that only accepts write mem.
