Hi folks
I do need some clarification on frame-relay configuration Inverse ARP. I do have tow books but but I'm getting different information as far as configuring a frame-relay between two routers.
Here is the information from 1st book:
Single Interface
Let’s get started by looking at a simple example. Say that we just want to connect two routers
with a single PVC. Here’s how that configuration would look:
RouterA#config t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
RouterA(config)#int s0/0
RouterA(config-if)#encapsulation frame-relay
RouterA(config-if)#ip address 172.16.20.1 255.255.255.0
RouterA(config-if)#frame-relay lmi-type ansi
RouterA(config-if)#frame-relay interface-dlci 101
RouterA(config-if)#^Z
RouterA#
Here the author has specified the dlci number
Here is the information from 2nd book and this one is full mesh between 3 routers.
Frame Relay configuration on RT1, RT2, and RT3:
RTx(config)#int s0/0
RTx(config-if)#encapsulation frame-relay
RTx(config-if)#ip add 200.1.1.{x} 255.255.255.0
RTx(config-if)#no shut
RTx(config-if)#exit
RTx(config)#router eigrp 1
RTx(config-router)#network 200.1.1.0
RTx(config-router)#network 172.16.0.0
RTx(config-router)#no auto-summary
As you can see the author did not specify the dlci number.
And lastly I saw this configuration from Brian on CLN

My question is the fallowed do we need to specify the dlci number while the Inverse ARP is enabled?
