Jennifer,

The following will work:

R1
!
frame sw
int s0
shut
!
int s2
desc (DTE CABLE) -- CONNECTED TO R2 (DCE)
ip add 100.100.200.1 255.255.0.0
encap frame
frame lmi-type ansi
frame intf-type dce
frame map ip 100.100.200.1 200 bro
frame map ip 100.100.200.2 200 bro
no frame inverse-arp
no shut
!

r2
!
int s0
encap frame
frame lmi-type ansi
clock rate 56000
ip add 100.100.200.2 255.255.0.0
frame map ip 100.100.200.1 200 bro
frame map ip 100.100.200.2 200 bro
no frame inverse-arp
no shut

You can also turn the cable around so the DCE end is on the switch. If you
do that, only move the clock rate from R2 to R1 but do not change any other
command.

R2 can only use DLCI 200 to connect to the frame switch; it cannot connect
via DLCI 200 on through the switch to another router since the switch is
mapping the DLCI, not routing the DLCI.

This config is useful for using your switch as a Backbone router to inject
routes into your network. You could also use the ethernet port to do this.

I haven't tried the following, but I think you could use R1's physical S2
interface to route DLCIs from R2 through to other routers, and use a
subinterface (S2.1 point-to-multipoint) to connect to R2 via DLCI 200. R2
would also use physical S0 to map ip addresses to the DLCIs going to other
routers and would use it's S0.1 point-to-multipoint subinterface to map it's
connection to DLCI 200 to the switch. Should be easy to try.

In other words, R1's S0 would be programmed like a normal switch (frame
route statements) and S0.1 point-to-multipoint would be programmed like the
example above (frame map statements). R2 would use frame map statements on
S0 to establish paths to other routers; R2's S0.1 point-to-multipoint would
be programmed like the example above (also using frame map statements).

You could use point-to-point subinterfaces, but then you couldn't map the ip
addresses to DLCI 200 and would have to rely on inverse-arp.

HTH, Kym
