Subnet 128.1.125.0/24
R5, R2 and R1 in Frame-Relay Multipoint , R5 is the HUB, all of these are
in PPPoFR with virtual template and DLCI assigned to interface.
OSPF area 125 is running in the FR segment, also FR network type
point-to-multi is employed.

Subnet 128.1.136.0/24
R1,R6,R3 are in Broadcast multiaccess. They are in OSPF area 0.

I can ping from R2 to R1 (128.1.125.2 --> 128.1.125.1), But I cannot
ping from (128.1.125.2 to 128.1.136.1(routerR1's ethernet interface).

When I did a trace route(128.1.125.2 to 128.1.136.1(routerR1's ethernet
interface), I got this loop.
****************************************************************
R2#traceroute 128.1.136.1

Type escape sequence to abort.
Tracing the route to 128.1.136.1

Can someone help to avoid this loop.
