Configuration Tasks

MLFR configuration consists of three major tasks, each with several steps:

  1. Create the member links to be aggregated into a multilink bundle.
    1. Specify the interface on which you want to configure MLFR.
      host1(config)#interface serial 2/0:1
    2. Specify MLFR as the encapsulation method on the interface.
      host1(config-if)#encapsulation mlframe-relay ietf
  2. Add member links to a multilink bundle.
    1. Define the MLFR bundle.
      host1(config)#interface mlframe-relay boston
    2. Add each member link.
      host1(config-if)#member-interface serial 2/0:1
    3. (Optional) Add a description to the major interface.
      host1(config-if)#frame-relay description bostonBundleDescription
    4. (Optional) Configure Frame Relay parameters.
      host1(config-if)#frame-relay intf-type dce
      host1(config-if)#frame-relay lmi-type cisco
  3. Configure the Frame Relay subinterface.
    1. Define the subinterface for the MLFR bundle.
      host1(config)#interface mlframe-relay boston.1
    2. Assign a DLCI for the subinterface.
      host1(config-subif)#frame-relay interface-dlci 16 ietf
    3. (Optional) Add a description to the subinterface.
      host1(config-subif)#frame-relay description bostonBundleSubOneDescription
    4. Assign an IP address to the subinterface.
      host1(config-subif)#ip address 10.10.100.1 255.255.255.0
