Frame Relay operation requires that the WAN interface is set to be a
“numbered interface.” This means that the interface (and thus the
Frame Relay network) must have an IPX network number.

SMDS Configuration

This section covers the settings required for SMDS (Switched
Multi-megabit Data Service) operation of the MicroRouter 1200i WAN
0 interface (IP only). SMDS is a connectionless, packet-switched
service that offers LAN-to-LAN connectivity across a wide area at up to
1.544 Mbps.

Note:

The IP protocol settings and the physical communication

settings are the same as they would be for Frame Relay operation. The
only parameters which should be set differently for SMDS are the Link
Configuration and the SMDS addressing section.
