Resolving NBMA Reachability Issues

Split horizon can cause problems in NBMA environments.


Solution: subinterfaces
A single physical interface simulates multiple logical interfaces.

Frame Relay Address Mapping

LMI receives locally significant DLCI from the Frame Relay switch.
Inverse ARP maps the local DLCI to the remote router network
layer address.

Configuring a Static Frame Relay Map

Configure a static Frame Relay map when:


A Frame Relay peer does not support Inverse ARP
You want to control broadcast traffic across a PVC
You want to have different Frame Relay encapsulations across
PVCs

Configuring Frame Relay Subinterfaces


Point-to-point
Subinterfaces act like leased lines.
Each point-to-point subinterface requires its own subnet.
Point-to-point is applicable to hub-and-spoke topologies.
Multipoint
Subinterfaces act like NBMA networks, so they do not resolve
the split-horizon issues.
Multipoint can save address space because it uses a single
subnet.
Multipoint is applicable to partial-mesh and full-mesh
topologies.

Summary
Frame Relay PVCs are identified with DLCIs, and the status of the
PVCs are reported via the LMI protocol.
Frame Relay point-to-point subinterfaces require a separate
subnet for each PVC, and multipoint subinterfaces share a single
subnet with frame relay peers.
To display connectivity with the Frame Relay provider, use the
show frame-relay lmi command. To display connectivity with the
Frame Relay peer, use the show frame-relay pvc and show
frame-relay map commands.
