Duplicate IP Address - Frame-Relay Subinterface

Hi all,

 

I am helping create some practice scenarios for internal employees, and this following issue was brought to my attention: A router allows duplicate IP addresses to be assigned to Frame-Relay subinterfaces. For example:

 

Interface IP-Address OK? Method Status Protocol

FastEthernet0/0 10.130.6.35 YES NVRAM up up

Serial0/0 unassigned YES NVRAM up up

Serial0/0.50 10.130.5.41 YES manual up up

Serial0/0.408 10.130.5.37 YES manual up up

Serial0/0.500 10.130.5.37 YES manual up up

 

interface Serial0/0.408 point-to-point

ip address 10.130.5.37 255.255.255.252

 ip nat inside

 no cdp enable

 frame-relay interface-dlci 408

end

 

interface Serial0/0.500 point-to-point

ip address 10.130.5.37 255.255.255.252

 ip nat inside

 no cdp enable

 frame-relay interface-dlci 500

end

            

Trying to apply IP address assigned to any other type of interface on the box does not work, only the IP address of other Frame subinterfaces. I haven't been able to track down a bug on this issue, wondering if anyone has seen this before and if it is default behavior. Show ip route 10.130.5.37 shows equal-cost connected routes for each configured interface.

 

Thanks in advance
