Hello people..

Please, I wish to understand the frame-relay encapsulation command
parameters.
I know that this could affect me in Layer 2 Framming, Compression, LFI
in QoS, etc..

In doing IETF mode we move from the default Cisco frame-relay
configuration, if the remote end is a non cisco device,

But, why in this configuration the PVC is up?

R1 ---- (FR SW) ---- R5

Rack1R5#show run interface serial 0/0
Building configuration...

Current configuration : 81 bytes
!
interface Serial0/0
 no ip address
 encapsulation frame-relay
 cdp enable
end

Rack1R1#show run interface serial 0/0
Building configuration...

Current configuration : 74 bytes
!
interface Serial0/0
 no ip address
 encapsulation frame-relay IETF
end

As you can see
Rack1R1#fr pvc | in ACTIVE
DLCI = 105, DLCI USAGE = LOCAL, PVC STATUS = ACTIVE, INTERFACE = Serial0/0

The DLCI to R5 is UP, and you can see that the encap in R5 is a Cisco
Encapsualation
Is there any link or any debug command that could help me understand a
little bit better this?

Thanks
Victor.
