two mc3810 as frame relay switches?

[Dapp]

Hello,

in this scenario:

router1--->mc3810--->mc3810(v.35)--->router2

v.35 E1 v.35

how can I create a direct frame relay pvc between router1 and router2?

I've searched frame relay switching configurations and I can't implement them on the mc3810 (I can't declare pvcs as switched).

Also I've read about interworking and FTC trunks with the mc3810, but I want to use two mc3810 directly back to back, without an IGX.

Is this possible?

thanks,

Daniel

configure mc3810-1 and mc3810-2 as frame-relay switching DCE devices.

int s0 (repeat for other interfaces also)

encap frame-relay

frame-relay intf-type dce

Now use DLCI 100 between router 1 and mc3810-1.

Use DLCI 200 between mc3810-1 and mc3810-2

Use DLCI 300 between mc3810-2 and router2.

On mc3810-1, configure a frame-relay route statement that routes from dlci 100 to 200 and vice versa.

On mc3810-2, configure a frame-relay route statement that routes from dlci 200 to 300 and vice versa.

The command is to be applied in interface mode.

frame-relay route 100 int serial1 200

(the appropriate command should be entered on all routers)

Hi,

Following to first reply, don't forget to give this command in global conf mode...

"frame-relay switching".

Do you meant to say that, mc3810 are routers?

You can directly create a FR PVC b/w routers also.
