Frame-Relay Full Mesh

Three frame-relay type -
  • Hub and Spoke Design
  • Partial Mesh Design
  • Full Mesh Design
In three type above,configure frame-relay full mesh only..It is the most expensive option in all frame-relay technology.It can offer lowest delay and full redundancy since every site has a separate PVC to  every other site.


The above diagram is simple once.The topology goal are:
  • Configure the frame-relay provider switch which is just only for provider site
  • Configure the frame-relay interface encapsulation,ip addresses to each remote routers(Casie,Alexandria,Michelle)
  • Configure the frame relay route map for each remote router.
  • Lastly,each remote router must be pingable to another remote routers.
I configure frame-relay provider switch first look like that the following.
Router>en                                               //entering the  executable mode
Router#config t                                      //entering the global configuration mode
Router(config)#host FrameRelayProvider        //changing the host name
FrameRelayProvider(config)#do sh ip int brief //seeing the interface briefly 
interface                   IP-Address    OK? Method          Status                   Protocol  
Ethernet0/0              unassigned    YES unset    administratively down     down    
GigabitEthernet0/0  unassigned    YES unset    administratively down     down
Serial1/0                  unassigned    YES unset    administratively down     down   
Serial1/1                  unassigned    YES unset    administratively down     down   
Serial1/2                  unassigned    YES unset    administratively down     down   
Serial1/3                  unassigned    YES unset    administratively down     down   
ATM2/0                    unassigned    YES unset    administratively down     down   
POS3/0                     unassigned    YES unset    administratively down     down
FrameRelayProvider(config)#frame-relay ?
address                   Address Registration with neighbor
de-list                      Build a classification list to be used in setting the DE bit
switching                enable frame relay pvc switching
FrameRelayProvider(config)#frame-relay switching      //Router as a frame-relay switch
FrameRelayProvider(config)#int s1/0                             //entering the serial 1/0 interface
FrameRelayProvider(config-if)#encap frame            //changing the encapsulation type as frame-relay
FrameRelayProvider(config-if)#frame intf-type dce        //doing the interface as a dce
FrameRelayProvider(config-if)#no shut                        //doing interface to up
FrameRelayProvider(config-if)#int s1/1                       //entering the serial 1/1 interface
FrameRelayProvider(config-if)#encap frame            //changing the encapsulation type as frame-relay     
FrameRelayProvider(config-if)#frame intf-type dce      //doing the interface as a dce
FrameRelayProvider(config-if)#no shut                       //doing interface to up
FrameRelayProvider(config-if)#int s1/2                      //entering the serial 1/2 interface        
FrameRelayProvider(config-if)#encap frame            //changing the encapsulation type as frame-relay            
FrameRelayProvider(config-if)#frame intf-type dce         //doing the interface as a dce
FrameRelayProvider(config-if)#no shut                          // doing interface to up
