Frame Relay如今越来越不流行了，只是在过去的设计中被广泛应用。
所以工作上还是能常常见到的, 这篇博文从二层简单总结下FR的一些概念
在介绍Frame Relay之前，先了解下广播介质和非广播介质的差别：
Broadcast Media （广播介质）： Ethernet 、 Token-Ring、FDDI
特点：
- 源能够同一时候向全部连接（二层）目的地址通话
- 简化了三层到二层的解析
Non-Broadcast Multi Access （NBMA）： Frame Relay、ISDN、ATM etc。
特点：
- 源不能同一时候和二层相连的全部目的地址通话
- 三层的广播通过二层反复的单播实现 （pseudo-broadcast）
========三层到二层的地址解析对照=======
广播介质的三层地址解析：远程二层MAC地址和远程三层地址绑定
- IPv4 Adress Resolution Protocol ( ARP)
- 广播请求 - 谁知道1.1.1.1的MAC地址
- 单播回复 - 我的MAC是abcd.abcd.abcd
广播介质的三层地址解析：远程或本地的二层MAC地址和远程三层地址绑定
- 本地FR DLCI和远程IPv4地址绑定
- 远端ISDN电话和原电IPX地址绑定
- 反向ARP用解析远程三层地址到本地二层地址
- 仅仅有直接相连的设备能够进行解析
NBMA port类型：
多点接口 - 可连接多个二层链路 & 须要三层到二层的解析 (FR & ATM main interface)
单点接口 - 连接一个二层链路 & 不须要三层到二层解析 （PPP link, FR p2p subinterface)
======================================
1. FR 简单介绍
应用了NBMA - 也就意味着潜在存在三层到二层解析问题
DLCI - Data link Connection Identifier (数字链路识别码）
- 二层寻址
- DLCI本地有效
LMI - Local Management Interface
- DTE or DCE 通讯
- 汇报虚拟链路的状态
2. FR LMI 配置
开启FR
- encapsulation frame-relay
LMI的类型 ( 自己主动侦測）
- frame-relay lmi-type 【cisco | ansi | q933a】
- show frame-relay lmi
验证虚拟链接VC状态
- show frame-relay pvc
状态种类：
- active （E2E是好的，至少router 到 switch是ok的）
- inactive （中途出了问题）
- deleted （ 路由器试图用一些參数可是FR交换机不支持，配置错误等）
- static （LMI is disabled，用于back to back FR)
3. FR 地址解析
- 多点port须要三层到二层解析： 想要发包到IP a.b.c.d须要哪个DLCI ？
- 解析的种类
- 动态解析通过反向ARP请求 （inverse ARP）
- 静态解析通过命令frame-relay map
- 验证： sh frame-relay map
=======
FR inverse ARP
- 当配置了FR支持的协议，反向ARP自己主动开启
- 请求会在port配置的全部链路上发出
- 反向APR请求发送能够disable - no frame-relay inverse arp [protocol] [dlci]
- 回复不能被disable （这是个潜在的问题）
- 自己主动包含了对广播的支持
FR static Mapping
- 手动把本地的二层地址和远程的三层地址绑定
- frame-relay map [protocol] [address] dlci [broadcast]
- 和静态ARP的逻辑一样
- 静态配置会覆盖动态配置
- 想支持广播的话须要手动配置
========
路由器的Auto-install和Frame Relay可能引入问题：
- 假设在NVRAM里没有配置文件，路由器会侦測port的封装模式和发送地址请求
LAN - DHCP
HDLC - SLARP
FR - BOOTP
- 当地址配置过后，路由器就会试图通过TFTP拿到配置
FR在这里出现的问题在第四步：
- 侦測封装
- 通过DLCI学习LMI
- 给全部DLCIs发送BOOTP
- 假设请求失败了，会自己主动配置0.0.0.0 mapping
- 这可能破坏之后的路由配置
- 解决方法就是save config and reload
=================
最后要提的是点到点port
- 一个port对一条二层链路
- 不须要三层到二层的解析，仅仅须要配置链路号 - frame-relay interface-dlci [dlci]
- 更倾向于点到点配置（能够避免三层以上配置问题）
================
思科官方文档 - 基本配置
An interface is by default a "multipoint" interface so, frame-relay inverse-arp is on (for point-to-point, there is no Inverse ARP). IP split horizon checking is disabled by default for Frame Relay encapsulation, so routing updates come in and out the same interface. The routers learn the data-link connection identifiers (DLCIs) they need to use from the Frame Relay switch via LMI updates. The routers then Inverse ARP for the remote IP address and create a mapping of local DLCIs and their associated remote IP addresses.
