I have an interesting tidbit that I hope can add to this thread. I was
doing a frame relay lab and set up a 2501 as a frame switch. I had two
other 2501s as the remote ends. I set up the major interface for frame
relay, but did NOT specify a DLCI number for both remote ends. In the frame
switch, I added my frame-relay route commands for the respective major
interfaces and DID specify DLCI numbers. What I found out is that the
remote ends "learned" their DLCI's from the frame switch. I remember in my
studies that using the default Cisco LMI type buys you some auto discovery
of sorts. I am not sure if this is playing a part in Nigel's experiment,
but why not give it a go by changing the default Cisco LMI type to some
other type and see if the results stays the same.

Subject: Frame Relay...Inverse-Arp..?
Hi All,
I was working through a number of frame relay lab and made =
some pretty cool observations. The big one being that I had Inverse-Arp =
working as well while using the "frame-map" command. Everything I know =
tells me this shouldn't be but it works.
I reloaded the routers and the Inverse arp worked. Even after shutting =
down the interface and bringing it back up the Inverse-Arp still worked. =
=20
Anyone got any thoughts on how this could be working....?
Nigel...
