Herbert,
What IOS are using that allows you to set the interface type to dce
without enablling frame-relay switching? Here is the result I get:
R5(config)#int s1/0
R5(config-if)#no shut
R5(config-if)#encap frame
R5(config-if)#frame intf-type dce
Must enable frame-relay switching to configure DCE/NNI
R5(config-if)#
As I am sure you know, there are two methods that permit frame
encapsulation between two routers without an intermediate frame switch:
One is called "back-to-back". It does not require frame-switching or an
interface set to type dce. It is can be found on CCO at document ID: 14193.
The other is "hybrid switching" It does require frame-switching on one
side and one interface of frame-relay type dce. It can be found on CCO
at document ID: 14194.
Did I misunderstand your comment above, or am I missing something?
