Chapter 2 - Quickstart Configuration 9
IP Protocol
There are two ways to set up Frame Relay. One is to set the WAN interface as a “numbered
interface.” This means that the interface (and thus the Frame Relay network) will have an IP
address, subnet mask, etc. The other is to set it as an unnumbered interface and specify that the
link is point-to-point Frame Relay and set the local DLCI. Unnumbered Frame Relay can only
be configured using text-based configuration. Instructions are provided for both options.
Required for IP Numbered Interface
• IP numbered interface
• IP address
• IP subnet mask
• IP broadcast address
CV: Use the TCP/IP Routing: WAN Dialog Box.
TB: Use the configure command and the Numbered, IPAddress, SubnetMask, and
IPBroadcast keywords in the IP WAN 0 section.
Required for IP Unnumbered Interface
• IP unnumbered interface
• Point-to-Point Frame Relay
• Local DLCI
TB: Use the configure command and the Numbered, PointToPointFrame, and Inter-
faceDLCI keywords in the IP WAN 0 section.
Suggested for IP
These parameters help supply information about the segment that the interface is connected to.
With this information, routing can take place.
• Set IP RIP 1, IP RIP 2, OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) or BGP (Border Gateway
Protocol)
• IP static routes
CV: Use the TCP/IP Routing: WAN Dialog Box to set RIP, and the IP Static Routing Dialog
Box (under Global/IP Static Routes) to set static routes. OSPF and BGP can only be config-
ured using text-based configuration.
TB: Use configure and set either the RIPVersion keyword or the OSPFEnabled keyword in
the IP WAN 0 section. Add static routes and a default router using the edit config IP Static
command.
v Note: Due to the complexity of BGP, configuration parameters for BGP are not given in this
Quickstart. For help with BGP configuration parameters, and other configuration questions,
refer to theTech Support pages on the Compatible Systems Web site at:

IPX Protocol
Required for IPX
Frame Relay operation requires that the WAN interface be set as a “numbered interface.” This
means that the interface (and thus the Frame Relay network) must have an IPX network
number.
• IPX numbered interface
• IPX network number
CV: Use the IPX Routing: WAN Dialog Box.
