commands needed to configure the router for Frame Relay AutoInstall
on a serial line:

Router# configure terminal

interface serial 0

ip address 172.31.20.20 255.255.255.0

encapsulation frame-relay

frame-relay map ip 172.31.10.1 255.255.255.0 48

ip helper-address 172.31.20.5

Set Up the TFTP Server

For AutoInstall to work correctly, the new router must resolve its host
name and then download a name-confg or a name.cfg file from a TFTP
server. The new router can resolve its host name by using a network-
confg or a cisconet.cfg file downloaded from a TFTP server or by
using the DNS.

To set up a TFTP server to support AutoInstall, complete these tasks.
Step 2 includes two ways to resolve the new router's host name. Use
the first method if you want to us

network-confg file to resolve the

new router's host name. Use the second method if you want to us
DNS to resolve the new router's host name.
