RE: One IP address problem on FR

   In this world, I've just found that, sometimes, you cannot ping your
   own interfaces. Firewalls are like that too.
   
   For a technical reason... the encapsulation failed because the sending
   router didn't have a DLCI to map that address to (nevermind that the
   address is defined on the interface). Some of them just don't work
   that way.
   
   Does someone have a better explanation? I've always just accepted it
   "as is".

   Subject: One IP address problem on FR
   
   Hi All:
   
   
   
   I have one FR network, 2 spoke routers connected to the hub router.
   
   The type of the FR network is Broadcast, and mapping between IP
   
   address and DLCI is defined manually.
   
   From the router, it can ping the other one, but when it ping its own
   
   interface IP address, Failed. Using debug, get the following message:
   
   "... Encapsulation Failed."
   
   What's the problem?
   
   
   
   Thanks
