8.8 Configuring frame relay over an IP network
8.8.1 Establishing the configuration task
Applicable environment
With the increasing wide application of IP networks, you need to implement the FR network
based on FR over IP (FRoIP). FRoIP creates GRE tunnel between FR networks at two ends
and transmits FR packets through the GRE tunnel. After setting the GRE tunnel interface, the
FR switching can use it to complete FRoIP. For detailed information, see Figure 8-4.
Figure 8-4
Typical application diagram of FR over IP
You can divide FR packets transmitted on the GRE tunnel into three groups:
•
FR datagram that has encapsulated with IP header
•
Inverse ARP packet
•
LMI packet used to negotiate PVC status on GRE tunnel
You can implement this function using FR switching route and FR switching PVC.
Preconfiguration tasks
Before configuring FR over an IP network and IP header compression, you need to complete
the following tasks:
•
Configuring physical parameters for FR interfaces
Configuring basic frame relay DTE capability or Configuring basic frame relay DCE
•
Creating and configuring the source address and destination address of the tunnel
interface
