FTRS configuration question? (long with examples)

Hi,

I'm working though some FRTs stuff and the more I look into it the more confused I get.

I have some general observations that I want to run by the group.

The scenario:

- Serial interface with 2 multipoint subinterfaces.
- The CIR (AR) of s0.24 is 56k
- The CIR (AR) of s0.256 is 512k split among 2 DLCIs of 256k each

Observation 1.
If I enable 'frame-relay traffic-shaping' on the the physical interface and add nothing else, all subinterfaces get a CIR of 56k by default

Observation 2.
If I enable 'frame-relay traffic-shaping' on the the physical interface and add map-class to the physical interface and nothing else, all subinterfaces inherit the map-class properties

Obseration 3.
If I enable 'frame-relay traffic-shaping' on the the physical interface and add map-class(1) to the physical interface and add map-class(2) to one of the subinterface, then that subinterface will have the properties of 2, while the other will still inherit the properties of 1.

*** OK, this is where I get confused ****

What about a multipoint subinterface with multiple DLCIs? I've tied 2 different confguration methods and both seem to work fine. Which is the correct method?

These are the map class I used for both mothods:

map-class frame-relay frts_dlci_105
 frame-relay cir 256000
 frame-relay bc 32000
 frame-relay be 128000
 frame-relay mincir 128000
 no frame-relay adaptive-shaping
!
map-class frame-relay frts_dlci_106
 frame-relay cir 256000
 frame-relay bc 32000
 frame-relay be 128000
 frame-relay mincir 128000
 no frame-relay adaptive-shaping

This also leads me to my next question, I alsways believed that if inverse arp was turned off, you shouldn't rely on 'frame-relay interface-dlci...' to map your connections?

I thought that if inverse arp was disabled, you should use the map command?

Thanks,

Robert
