Another issue with inverse arp what if you have a fully meshed frame relay netw
ork but you are not allowed to use all of the PVC's.
Inverse arp will use the all the DLCI's available and you could end up using a
PVC you are not allowed too and not be awair of what you've done.
Think about it in the pressure of the lab environment you see its up and you ca
n ping so you dont bother doing a sh frame map or sh frame pvc and you've lost
points without realizing it.
Map statements mean you avoid using the PVC you are not allowed to use.

I agree with the Frame-relay map, frame-relay map, frame-relay map ...... state
ment.

Way too many issues with the inverse arp in the lab.

 My recommendation is to not depending on inverse arp when doing
the lab. It can be something problematic to get things working and
you can waste a lot of time trying to get things to work.

I know of someone that spend 1/2 of the first day just trying to
get framerelay working and pinging between routers. And didn't even
get to finish most of the questions because of this.

 The recommend I heard from some which I agree with is
Frame-relay map, frame-relay map, frame-relay map ...
