Configuring the Data Link Layer Protocol for E1, T1, and Serial Interfaces
Configuring the Logical Interface
For example, if the Frame Relay service provider assigned your company a
DLCI of 16, enter:
ProCurve(config-fr 1.16)# frame-relay interface-dlci 16
Configure the IP Address for the WAN Connection
You configure the IP address for the WAN connection on the Frame Relay
subinterface, rather than on the physical interface or the Frame Relay inter-
face. There are several ways to assign an IP address to the Frame Relay
subinterface:
■ assign a static IP address
■ configure the Frame Relay subinterface as a DHCP client
■ configure the Frame Relay subinterface as an unnumbered interface
Configuring a Static IP Address. From the Frame Relay subinterface con-
figuration mode context, enter:
Syntax: ip address <A.B.C.D> <subnet mask | /prefix length>
For <subnet mask>, you can enter the complete subnet mask or replace
</prefix length> with the CIDR notation. For example, you might enter:
ProCurve(config-fr 1.16)# ip address 10.10.2.1 /30
Configure the Frame Relay Subinterface as a DHCP Client. Your
Frame Relay service provider may want to dynamically assign your router an
IP address for each Frame Relay PVC. To enable a Frame Relay subinterface
to use DHCP to obtain an IP address, use one of the following commands:
Syntax: ip address dhcp {client-id [ethernet 0/<port> | HH:HH:HH:HH:HH:HH:HH] |
hostname <word>} [track <name>] [<administrative distance>]
Syntax: ip address dhcp [hostname <word> | no-default-route | no-domain-name |
no-nameservers] [track <name>] [<administrative distance>]
In addition to enabling the DHCP client for the Frame Relay subinterface, this
command allows you to configure the settings shown in Table 6-7.
