Re: [OSL | CCIE_RS] Problem with Frame-Relay Switching over Tunnel Interface

Great, you learn something new everyday :)

is your tunnel interface up/up? can you post a show inter tunnel0?

I don't is a cli-issue, cisco even have a clear documentation about how to do it

The logic behind of this is a FR header+payload inside an Ethernet | IP with the FRHeader+payload as a payload of the IP data. I configure this stuff a lot of years ago with two 2501 with tunnel interface over ethernet and work perfectly

Hi,

I don't think this can work.

First of all, GRE and Frame-Relay are completely different protocols operating at different OSI layers. GRE is IP (layer 3) based, whereas frame-relay is a layer-2 technology.

Also, traditionally, you would need a corresponding frame-relay route command under the tunnel interface to connect the DLCIs. This command is missing in the configuration below.

I think the fact that you can configure a tunnel interface as a destination for the frame-relay switching is a cli-issue. Meaning that ios simply allows any interface to be configured, but doesn't check that is actually a supported feature.

regards,
Marcel

At the moment I'm trying to configure a Frame-relay switch with two 2811 connecting each other over a fastethernet. First router have 3 WIC-2T and the second 1 WIC-2T. As the output show the frame-relay PVC over the GRE tunnels never come up. I read and re-read a few configuration examples and everything says that configuring must do the trick but for some reason my home lab is against me. Thanks for the help in advanced.
