Hi,

In non-broadcast case, R3 believe it can reach R1 via frame relay, which
doesnot work unless you creat a frame relay in R3 mapping R1 address to the
dlci toward R2. If you forget it, R3 will have route to R1 in routing
table,but the next hop is not reachable. The point here is that routing
protocols treat frame relay as a broadcast media and doesnot change the
next-hop for routes.
