Frame Relay - Basic Configurations Hub and Spoke - Part 1

Frame Relay - Basic Configurations Hub and Spoke - Part 1 of 4

Frame Relay is well-suited for a hub and spoke design. We can take advantage of Frame Relay's ability to assign more than one virtual circuit (VC) to a single physical access circuit and design a hub and spoke network that gives us connectivity between all endpoints with a minimum of circuit and equipment cost.

We'll revisit Frame Relay point to point connections in more detail in a future lesson, but the steps for configuring a serial interface for a Frame Relay point to point connection are pretty simple:

- Set the interface encapsulation to Frame Relay
- Set LMI type, if necessary
- Disable Frame Relay Inverse-ARP, if necessary
- Configure Layer 3 address on interface
- Manually configure Frame Relay IP to DLCI mapping including spoke to spoke mappings

Great video.

Haven't touched this topic since my ccna days a couple years ago so it made for a great catch up..

Thanks

This is a great Video in Frame Relay Basic's for hub and spoke. Great for CCENT study

You'll be golden if you watch this video.

why the juniper hate? i've heard good things about them and some of their features that cisco should incorporate.

the diagram shows R1 se0/0 as 10.1.123.1 255.255.255.0 but the command structure shows the ip add command with address 10.1.12.1 255.255.255.0 have i missed something? cheers

"God-forsaken Juniper router" :D
