Yes, it will work.

Hub

Rack1R1#sh run int s1/0

Building configuration...

Current configuration : 242 bytes

!

interface Serial1/0

frame-relay map ip 192.168.123.2 102 broadcast

frame-relay map ip 192.168.123.3 103 broadcast

Edison,

Will this work if you had a multipoint subinterface at the hub instead of a physical interface?

Hi

I think it doesnt make any difference if u r going with this setup.

Thanks

You can work the way you want, only the L2 - L3 mappings should be perfect.

multipoint subinterface has the same behavior as a physical main interface, the only difference is that you can have multiple multipoint subinterfaces while you can only have one physical interface.
