Installing new PVC on Frame Relay Network

[sabushaban]

Existing setup: A wan Frame Relay network through a providoe (Sprint) in which sites A and B are the hosts for several remote offices C, D, E, & F.

All PVC's are configured between Sites A and B and the rest of the remote offices (Meshed network).

There is a need to connect two of the remote offices C and D directly to access resources between each other.

Can we configure just two new PVC's between C and D through the providor ? or We need to upgrade one of them to be a third host ?

Any input for this question is highly appreciated.

Thanks

Hello,

You can order a PVC directly between sites C and D. However, you should be able to route traffic between these two locations via the PVCs you already have, to sites A and B. Of course, this would depend on the amount of traffic you need to send between these two sites.

HTH,

Mark

You can just order a new pvc for the sites C and D. You dont need to upgrade one of them to a new host.
