Prerequisites for Configuring Frame Relay
You must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper task IDs. The command reference guides include the task IDs required for each command. If you suspect user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.
Before configuring Frame Relay, be sure that the following conditions are met:
•Your hardware must support POS or serial interfaces.
•You have enabled Frame Relay encapsulation on your interface with the encapsulation frame relay command, as described in the appropriate module:
–To enable Frame Relay encapsulation on a multilink bundle interface, see the "Configuring Multilink Frame Relay Bundle Interfaces" section.
–To enable Frame Relay encapsulation on a POS interface, see the "Configuring POS Interfaces on Cisco IOS XR Software" module in this manual.
–To enable Frame Relay encapsulation on a serial interface, see the Configuring Serial Interfaces on Cisco IOS XR Sotware module in this manual.
Information About Frame Relay Interfaces
The following sections explain the various aspects of configuring Frame Relay interfaces:
•Frame Relay Encapsulation
•Multilink Frame Relay (FRF.16)
•End-to-End Fragmentation (FRF.12)
Frame Relay Encapsulation
On the Cisco XR 12000 Series Router, Frame Relay is supported on POS and serial main interfaces, and on PVCs that are configured under those interfaces. To enable Frame Relay encapsulation on an interface, use the encapsulation frame-relay command in interface configuration mode.
Frame Relay interfaces support two types of encapsulated frames:
•Cisco (this is the default)
•IETF
Use the encapsulation frame-relay command in interface configuration mode to configure Cisco or IETF encapsulation on a PVC.
Note If the encapsulation type is not configured explicitly for a PVC with the encapsulation command, then that PVC inherits the encapsulation type from the main interface.
The encapsulation frame relay and encap (PVC) commands are described in the following modules:
–To enable Frame Relay encapsulation on a POS interface, see the "Configuring POS Interfaces on Cisco IOS XR Software" module in this manual.
–To enable Frame Relay encapsulation on a serial interface, see the Configuring Serial Interfaces on Cisco IOS XR Sotware module in this manual.
When an interface is configured with Frame Relay encapsulation and no additional configuration commands are applied, the default interface settings shown in Table 23 are present. These default settings can be changed by configuration as described in this module.

LMI is enabled by default on Frame Relay interfaces. To reenable LMI on an interface after it has been disabled, use the no frame-relay lmi disable command. |
Interface configuration |
Note The default settings of LMI polling-related commands appear in Table 24 and Table 25.
LMI
The Local Management Interface (LMI) protocol monitors the addition, deletion, and status of PVCs. LMI also verifies the integrity of the link that forms a Frame Relay User-Network Interface (UNI).
Frame Relay interfaces supports the following types of LMI on UNI interfaces:
•ANSI—ANSI T1.617 Annex D
•Q.933—ITU-T Q.933 Annex A
•Cisco
Use the frame-relay lmi-type command to configure the LMI type to be used on an interface.
Note The LMI type that you use must correspond to the PVCs configured on the main interface. The LMI type must match on both ends of a Frame Relay connection.
If your router functions as a switch connected to another non-Frame Relay router, use the frame-relay intf-type dce command to configure the LMI type to support data communication equipment (DCE).
If your router is connected to a Frame Relay network, use the frame-relay intf-type dte command to configure the LMI type to support data terminal equipment (DTE).
Note LMI type auto-sensing is supported on DTE interfaces by default.
Use the show frame-relay lmi and show frame-relay lmi-info commands in EXEC mode to display information and statistics for the Frame Relay interfaces in your system. (When specifying the type and interface-path-id arguments, you must specify information for the main interface.) You can modify the error threshold, event count, and polling verification timer and then use the show frame-relay lmi command to gather information that can help you monitor and troubleshoot Frame Relay interfaces.
If the LMI type is cisco (the default LMI type), the maximum number of PVCs that can be supported under a single interface is related to the MTU size of the main interface. Use the following formula to calculate the maximum number of PVCs supported on a card or SPA :
(MTU - 13)/8 = maximum number of PVCs
The default number of PVCs supported on POS PVCs configured with cisco LMI is 557, while the default number of PVCs supported on serial PVCs configured with cisco LMI is 186.
For LMI types that are not from Cisco, up to 992 PVCs are supported under a single main interface.
Note If a specific LMI type is configured on an interface, use the no frame-relay lmi-type [ansi | cisco | q933a] command to bring the interface back to the default LMI type.
Table 24 describes the commands that can be used to modify LMI polling options on PVCs configured for a DCE.

Multilink Frame Relay (FRF.16)
Multilink Frame Relay (MFR) is supported only on the following shared port adapters (SPAs):
•Cisco 1-Port Channelized STM-1/OC-3 SPA
•2-Port and 4-Port Channelized T3 SPA
•Cisco 1-port Channelized OC-12 SPA
•Cisco 8-Port Channelized T1/E1 SPA
Multilink Frame Relay High Availability
MFR supports the following levels of high availability support:
•MFR supports a process restart, but some statistics will be reset during a restart of certain processes.
•MFR member links remain operational during a route processor (RP) switchover.
Multilink Frame Relay Configuration Overview
A multilink Frame Relay interface is part of a multilink bundle that allows Frame Relay encapsulation on its interfaces. You create a multilink Frame Relay interface by configuring the following components:
•MgmtMultilink controller
•Multilink bundle interface that allows Frame Relay encapsulation
•Bundle identifier name
•Multilink Frame Relay subinterfaces
•Bundle interface bandwidth class
•Serial interfaces
MgmtMultilink Controller
You configure a multilink bundle under a controller, using the following commands:
controller MgmtMultilink rack/slot/bay/controller-id
bundle bundleId
This configuration creates the controller for a generic multilink bundle. The controller ID number is the zero-based index of the controller chip. Currently, the SPAs that support multilink Frame Relay have only one controller per bay; therefore, the controller ID number is always zero (0).
Multilink Bundle Interface
After you create the multilink bundle, you create a multilink bundle interface that allows Frame Relay encapsulation, using the following commands:
interface multilink interface-path-id
encapsulation frame-relay
This configuration allows you to create multilink Frame Relay subinterfaces under the multilink bundle interface.
Note After you set the encapsulation on a multilink bundle interface to Frame Relay, you cannot change the encapsulation if the interface has member links or any member links associated with a multilink bundle.
Bundle Identifier Name
Note Bundle identifier name is configurable only under Frame Relay Forum 16.1 (FRF 16.1).
The bundle identifier (bid) name value identifies the bundle interface at both endpoints of the interface. The bundle identifier name is exchanged in the information elements to ensure consistent link assignments.
By default, the interface name, for example, Multilink 0/4/1/0/1, is used as the bundle identifier name. However, you can optionally create a name using the frame-relay multilink bid command.
Note Regardless of whether you use the default name or create a name using the frame-relay multilink bid command, each bundle must have a unique name. If the same name is used by different bundles, the bundles will flap indefinitely.
The bundle identifier name can be up to 50 characters including the null termination character. The bundle identifier name is configured at the bundle interface level and is applied to each member link.
You configure the bundle identifier name using the following commands:
interface multilink interface-path-id
frame-relay multilink bid bundle-id-name
Multilink Frame Relay Subinterfaces
You configure a multilink Frame Relay subinterface, using the following command:
interface multilink interface-path-id[.subinterface {l2transport | point-to-point}]
You can configure up to 992 subinterfaces on a multilink bundle interface.
Note You configure specific Frame Relay interface features at the subinterface level.
Multilink Frame-Relay Subinterface Features
The following commands are available to set specific features on a multilink Frame Relay bundle subinterface:
•mtu MTU size
•description
•shutdown
•bandwidth bandwidth
•service-policy {input | output} policymap-name
Note When entering the service-policy command, which enables you to attach a policy map to a multilink Frame Relay bundle subinterface, you must do so while in Frame Relay PVC configuration mode. For more information, see Configuring Multilink Frame Relay Bundle Interfaces.
Bundle Interface Bandwidth Class
Note Bandwidth class is configurable only under a multilink bundle interface.
You can configure one of three types of bandwidth classes on a multilink Frame Relay interface:
•a—Bandwidth Class A
•b—Bandwidth Class B
•c—Bandwidth Class C
When Bandwidth Class A is configured and one or more member links are up (PH_ACTIVE), the bundle interface is also up and BL_ACTIVATE is signaled to the Frame Relay connections. When all the member links are down, the bundle interface is down and BL_DEACTIVATE is signaled to the Frame Relay connections.
When Bandwidth Class B is configured and all the member links are up (PH_ACTIVE), the bundle interface is up and BL_ACTIVATE is signaled to the Frame Relay connections. When any member link is down, the bundle interface is down and BL_ACTIVATE is signaled to the Frame Relay connections.
When Bandwidth Class C is configured, you must also set the bundle link threshold to a value between 1 and 255. The threshold value is the minimum number of links that must be up (PH_ACTIVE) for the bundle interface to be up and for BL_ACTIVATE to be signaled to the Frame Relay connections. When the number of links that are up falls below this threshold, the bundle interface goes down and BL_DEACTIVATE is signaled to the Frame Relay connections. When 1 is entered as the threshold value, the behavior is identical to Bandwidth Class A. If you enter a threshold value that is greater than the number of member links that are up, the bundle remains down.
You configure the bandwidth class for a Frame Relay multilink bundle interface using the following commands:
interface multilink interface-path-id
frame-relay multilink bandwidth-class {a | b | c [threshold]}
The default is a (Bandwidth Class A).
Serial Interfaces
After the T3 and T1 controllers are configured, you can add serial interfaces to the multilink Frame Relay bundle subinterface by configuring the serial interface, encapsulating it as multilink Frame Relay (mfr), assigning it to the bundle interface (specified by the multilink group number), and configuring a name for the link. You may also configure MFR acknowledge timeout value, retry count for retransmissions and hello interval, for the bundle link.
You configure a multilink Frame Relay serial interface using the following commands:
interface serial rack/slot/module/port/t1-num:channel-group-number
encapsulation mfr
multilink group group number
frame-relay multilink lid link-id name
frame-relay multilink ack ack-timeout
frame-relay multilink hello hello-interval
frame-relay multilink retry retry-count
Note All serial links in an MFR bundle inherit the value of the mtu command from the multilink interface. Therefore, you should not configure the mtu command on a serial interface before configuring it as a member of an MFR bundle. The Cisco IOS XR software blocks attempts to configure a serial interface as a member of an MFR bundle if the interface is configured with a nondefault MTU value as well as attempts to change the mtu command value for a serial interface that is configured as a member of an MFR bundle.
Show Commands
You can verify a multilink Frame Relay serial interface configuration using the following show commands:
show frame-relay multilink location node id
show frame-relay multilink interface serial interface-path-id [detail | verbose]
The following example shows the display output of the show frame-relay multilink location command:
RP/0/0/CPU0:router# show frame-relay multilink location 0/4/cpu0

Member of bundle interface Multilink0/4/2/0/2 with ifhandle 0x05007800
The following example shows the display output of
RP/0/0/CPU0:router# show frame-relay multilink interface serial 0/4/2/0/10:0
Member interface: Serial0/4/2/0/10:0, ifhandle 0x05007c00
HW state = Up, link state = Up
Member of bundle interface Multilink0/4/2/0/2 with ifhandle 0x05007800
End-to-End Fragmentation (FRF.12)
You can configure an FRF.12 end-to-end fragmentation connection using the data-link connection identifier (DLCI). However, it must be done on a channelized Frame Relay serial interface.
Note The fragment end-to-end command is not allowed on Packet-over-SONET/SDH (POS) interfaces or under the DLCI of a multilink Frame Relay bundle interface.
You configure FRF.12 end-to-end fragmentation on a DLCI connection using the following command:
fragment end-to-end fragment-size
The fragment-size argument defines the size of the fragments, in bytes, for the serial interface.
Note On a DLCI connection, we highly recommend that you configure an egress service policy that classifies packets into high and low priorities, so that interleaving of high-priority and low-priority fragments occurs.
Configuring Frame Relay
The following sections describe how to configure Frame Relay interfaces.
•Modifying the Default Frame Relay Configuration on an Interface
•Disabling LMI on an Interface with Frame Relay Encapsulation
•Configuring Multilink Frame Relay Bundle Interfaces
•Configuring FRF.12 End-to-End Fragmentation on a Channelized Frame Relay Serial Interface
Modifying the Default Frame Relay Configuration on an Interface
Perform this task to modify the default Frame Relay parameters on a Packet-over-SONET/SDH (POS), multilink, or serial interface with Frame Relay encapsulation.
Prerequisites
Before you can modify the default Frame Relay configuration, you need to enable Frame Relay on the interface, as described in the following modules:
•To enable Frame Relay encapsulation on a POS interface, see the "Configuring POS Interfaces on Cisco IOS XR Software" module in this manual.
•To enable Frame Relay encapsulation on a serial interface, see the Configuring Serial Interfaces on Cisco IOS XR Sotware module in this manual.
Note Before enabling Frame Relay encapsulation on a POS or serial interface, make certain that you have not previously assigned an IP address to the interface. If an IP address is assigned to the interface, you will not be able to enable Frame Relay encapsulation. For Frame Relay, the IP address and subnet mask are configured on the subinterface.
Restrictions
•The LMI type must match on both ends of the connection for the connection to be active.
•Before you can remove Frame Relay encapsulation on an interface and reconfigure that interface with PPP or HDLC encapsulation, you must remove all interfaces, subinterface, LMI, and Frame Relay configuration from that interface.

Configuring Multilink Frame Relay Bundle Interfaces
Perform these steps to configure a multilink Frame Relay (MFR) bundle interface and its subinterfaces.
Restrictions
•MFR does not support the FRF.16.1 Vendor Extension Information element.
•All member links in a multilink Frame Relay bundle interface must be of the same type (for example, T1s or E1s). The member links must have the same framing type, such as point-to-point, and they must have the same bandwidth class.
•All member links must be full T1s or E1s. Fractional links, such as DS0s, are not supported.
•All member links must reside on the same SPA; otherwise, they are considered to be unrelated bundles.
•All member links must be connected to the same line card or SPA at the far end.
•A maximum of 992 MFR subinterfaces is supported on each main interface, based on the supported DLCI range 16-1007.
•A maximum of 4096 subinterfaces are supported per line card or SPA.
•The Cisco 8-Port Channelized T1/E1 SPA has the following additional guidelines:
–A maximum of 8 T1/E1 links per SPA is supported.
–A maximum of 8 links per bundle is supported.
–A maximum of 8 MFR bundles per SPA is supported, with a minimum of one link per bundle.
•All serial links in an MFR bundle inherit the value of the mtu command from the multilink interface. Therefore, you should not configure the mtu command on a serial interface before configuring it as a member of an MFR bundle. The Cisco IOS XR software blocks the following:
–Attempts to configure a serial interface as a member of an MFR bundle if the interface is configured with a nondefault MTU value.
–Attempts to change the mtu command value for a serial interface that is configured as a member of an MFR bundle.

Step 1 |
RP/0/0/CPU0:router# config |
Enters global configuration mode. |
Step 2 |
controller MgmtMultilink rack/slot/bay/controller-id
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# controller MgmtMultilink 0/1/0/0 |
Creates the controller for a generic multilink bundle in the rack/slot/bay/controller-id notation and enters the multilink management configuration mode. The controller ID number is the zero-based index of the controller chip. Currently, the SPAs that support multilink Frame Relay have only one controller per bay; therefore, the controller ID number is always zero (0). |
Step 3 |
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-mgmtmultilink)# exit |
Exits the multilink management configuration mode. |
Step 4 |
controller t3 interface-path-id
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# controller t3 0/1/0/0 |
Specifies the T3 controller name in the rack/slot/module/port notation and enters T3 configuration mode. |
Step 5 |
mode type
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-t3)# mode t1 |
Configures the type of multilinks to channelize; for example, 28 T1s. |
Step 6 |
clock source {internal | line}
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config-t3)# clock source internal |
(Optional) Sets the clocking for individual E3 links. Note The default clock source is internal. Note When configuring clocking on a serial link, you must configure one end to be internal, and the other end to be line. If you configure internal clocking on both ends of a connection, framing slips occur. If you configure line clocking on both ends of a connection, the line does not come up. |
Step 7 |
