RE: no arp frame-relay

Kevin,

You have disabled frame relay arp on the interface and not frame relay
inverse arp. The debug output shows an inverse arp exchange and the frame
map shows the result of frame relay inverse arp.

If you do not wish to resolve dynamic map from l3 to l2 then you have to
apply the command

no frame-relay inverse-arp

The command arp frame-relay resolves a known ip address to a hardware
address (in the case of Frame Relay the DLCI).

The command frame-relay inverse-arp resolves a known local DLCI to a far end
IP address.

Subject: no arp frame-relay

I thought that "no arp frame-relay" disabled either arp requests or arp
responses.
I did some testing see below and now I am totally confused ! With it off on
both router on each end of the same PVC it will still request and still
reply.
Any pointers ?
