You will not be able to ping your own IP address on a multipoint Frame
Relay interface. This is because Frame Relay multipoint
(sub)interfaces are non-broadcast (unlike Ethernet and point-to-point
interfaces (HDLC), and Frame Relay point-to-point sub-interfaces).
Futhermore, you will not be able to ping from one spoke to another
spoke in a hub and spoke configuration. This is because there is no
mapping for your own IP address (and none was learned via
inverse-arp). But if you configure a static map (frame-relay map) for
your own ip address (or one for the remote spoke) to use the local
DLCI, you can ping yourself to your heart's content.
