Hello Group!

I'm having a doubt when configuring this exercise,

The scenario, is that I have two subintf p2p on R2 and two main
interfaces on R3, the task is to create two frame-relay links (using two
dlci provisioned) and then bundle them together. I must also
authenticate them using CHAP.

That said, I created the FR connections, applied Virtual-templates to
both DLCIs, and bundled the VT with multilink group, after I created
interface Multilink 1.

As soon as I did no shut to the interfaces, the routers nagged me with
this message:

Rack1R3(config)#

Rack1R3#

*Mar 1 16:25:03.161: %FR-3-MLPOFR_ERROR: MLPoFR not configured properly
on Link Virtual-Access1 Bundle Multilink1 :Frame Relay traffic shaping
must be enabled

*Mar 1 16:25:03.169: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface Multilink1, changed
state to up

*Mar 1 16:25:03.574: %FR-3-MLPOFR_ERROR: MLPoFR not configured properly
on Link Virtual-Access2 Bundle Multilink1 :Frame Relay traffic shaping
must be enabled

Rack1R3#

Configuring traffic shaping was not part of the requisites of the
question. Nevertheless I manage to ping between both routers and all
seem well.

Could anybody explain/point to a link why is traffic-shaping recommended
( I do not say needed, because I have connectivity between both
routers.)

The solution guide on IEWB does not configure any Traffic shaping (yet).

I post my configs on R2 and R3
