MFR direct connection configuration example

Network requirements

As shown in Figure 34, Router A and Router B are directly connected through Serial 2/0 and Serial 2/1. The frame relay protocol bundles the two serial ports to provide broader bandwidth.

Configuration procedure

  1. Configure Router A:

    # Create and configure MFR interface 4 (MFR4).

    <RouterA> system-view
    [RouterA] interface mfr 4
    [RouterA-MFR4] ip address 10.140.10.1 255.255.255.0
    [RouterA-MFR4] fr interface-type dte
    [RouterA-MFR4] fr map ip 10.140.10.2 100
    [RouterA-MFR4] quit
    

    # Bundle Serial 2/0 and Serial 2/1 to MFR4.

    [RouterA] interface serial 2/0
    [RouterA-Serial2/0] link-protocol fr mfr 4
    [RouterA-Serial2/0] quit
    [RouterA] interface serial 2/1
    [RouterA-Serial2/1] link-protocol fr mfr 4
    
  2. Configure Router B:

    # Create and configure MFR interface 4 (MFR4).

    <RouterB> system-view
    [RouterB] interface mfr 4
    [RouterB-MFR4] ip address 10.140.10.2 255.255.255.0
    [RouterB-MFR4] fr interface-type dce
    [RouterB-MFR4] fr dlci 100
    [RouterB-fr-dlci-MFR4-100] quit
    [RouterB-MFR4] fr map ip 10.140.10.1 100
    [RouterB-MFR4] quit
    

    # Bundle Serial 2/0 and Serial 2/1 to MFR4.

    [RouterB] interface serial 2/0
    [RouterB-Serial2/0] link-protocol fr mfr 4
    [RouterB-Serial2/0] quit
    [RouterB] interface serial 2/1
    [RouterB-Serial2/1] link-protocol fr mfr 4
