Re: CDP on Multipoint FR interfaces!!

CDP uses a multicast address for its periodic advertisements. To make it
work on frame relay you will have to enable support for broadcast on the VC
and simply use the command "cdp enable" on your frame relay interface. On a
frame relay interface it is not on by default. Broadcast is enabled by
default if you use IARP to learn remote IP addresses. You will have to use
the "BROADCAST" keyword if you are using frame-relay map statements.

Hope that helps
John

On
