Configuring Local Cross-Connects for HDLC Layer 2 Services

You can also configure an HDLC layer 2 circuit in a local cross-connect configuration between serial or POS interfaces within the same router.

The procedure is basically the same for configuring an HDLC layer 2 interface between two PE routers and for a local cross-connect, with the following differences for local cross-connects:

• You must use the mpls-relay command instead of the route interface command to configure a local cross-connect for HDLC layer 2 services.
• You use the IP address of the local router as the value for the destination IP address (remote address) in the mpls-relay command.
