DLSw Lite in promiscous mode

Hello everybody,

Can DLSw Lite works in promiscous mode? I couldn't make it work. I had the
following topology:

         |----------S0/0 (R2)
         |
(R3) s0/0
         |
         |---------S0/0 (R1)

All the routers connect to each other thru Frame-Relay. I have to configure
DLSw peering between R3 & R2 and between R3 & R1. I decide to use DLSw Lite
encapsulation. This are the configurations for R1 and R2:

R1

dlsw local-peer peer-id 150.1.1.1
dlsw remote-peer 0 frame-relay interface Serial0/0 16
dlsw bridge-group 11

interface Serial0/0
ip address 149.1.123.1 255.255.255.0
frame-relay map llc2 16 broadcast

R2
dlsw local-peer peer-id 150.1.2.2
dlsw remote-peer 0 frame-relay interface Serial0/0 16

interface Serial0/0
ip address 149.1.123.2 255.255.255.0
frame-relay map llc2 16 broadcast

If I configure DLSw in R3 without promicous mode everything works great:

R3

dlsw local-peer peer-id 150.1.3.3 promiscuous
dlsw remote-peer 0 frame-relay interface Serial0/0 17 cost 5
dlsw remote-peer 0 frame-relay interface Serial0/0 18 cost 1
dlsw bridge-group 11

interface Serial0/0
ip address 149.1.123.3 255.255.255.0
frame-relay map llc2 17 broadcast
frame-relay map llc2 18 broadcast
frame-relay map ip 149.1.123.1 18 broadcast
frame-relay map ip 149.1.123.2 17 broadcast

R3 connects with R1 and R2:

Rack1R3#sh dlsw peer
Peers: state pkts_rx pkts_tx type drops ckts TCP
uptime

LLC2 Se0/0 17 CONNECT 6838 14 conf 0 0 -
00:05:17

LLC2 Se0/0 18 CONNECT 6837 13 conf 0 0 -
00:05:15

Total number of connected peers: 2
Total number of connections: 2

But if I change the configuration in R3 making it work in promiscous mode:

dlsw local-peer peer-id 150.1.3.3 promiscuous
dlsw bridge-group 11

interface Serial0/0
ip address 149.1.123.3 255.255.255.0
frame-relay map llc2 17 broadcast
frame-relay map llc2 18 broadcast
frame-relay map ip 149.1.123.1 18 broadcast
frame-relay map ip 149.1.123.2 17 broadcast

It doesn't work at all:

Rack1R3#sh dlsw peers
Peers: state pkts_rx pkts_tx type drops ckts TCP
uptime

Total number of connected peers: 0
Total number of connections: 0

Rack1R2#sh dlsw peers
Peers: state pkts_rx pkts_tx type drops ckts TCP
uptime

LLC2 Se0/0 16 DISCONN 0 0 conf 0 0 -
  -

Total number of connected peers: 0
Total number of connections: 0

Rack1R1#sh dlsw peers
Peers: state pkts_rx pkts_tx type drops ckts TCP
uptime

LLC2 Se0/0 16 DISCONN 0 0 conf 0 0 -
  -

Total number of connected peers: 0
Total number of connections: 0

Could somebody tell me if i'm doing something wrong? If you need more debug
or show outputs just ask for it.

Thanks a lot
