OSPF Over Frame-Relay: Point-to-Multipoint

Written by Rene Molenaar on . Posted in OSPF

Scenario:

As the senior network engineer for a Dutch fishing company you are responsible for connecting all the different branch offices to the main network. The WAN technology you are using is Frame Relay, and you need to run OSPF over this WAN connection.

Goal:

  • The frame-relay switch has been preconfigured for you, as you can see in the topology picture the following PVC's has been configured:

    Router Barracuda to Salmon:
    Barracuda: DLCI 102
    Salmon: DLCI 201

    Router Barracuda to Herring:
    Barracuda: DLCI 103
    Salmon: DLCI 301

  • Router Barracuda is the "Hub" router and the other 2 routers are the "Spoke" routers.
  • Do not change any configuration on the Frame-Relay switch.
  • Configure the following IP addresses:
    Router Barracuda:
    S0/0: 192.168.123.1 /24
    L0: 1.1.1.1 /24

    Router Salmon:
    S0/0: 192.168.123.2 /24
    L0: 2.2.2.2 /24

    Router Herring:
    S0/0: 192.168.123.3 /24
    L0: 3.3.3.3 /24
  • Configure all serial interfaces for encapsulation Frame-Relay.
  • Disable Frame-relay inverse arp on all serial interfaces.
  • Configure the correct frame-relay map statements on all routers and make sure you can ping every IP address.
  • Configure the OSPF network type to "point-to-multipoint" on all serial interfaces.
  • Configure OSPF on all 3 routers, make sure you have full connectivity. All IP addresses including the loopbacks should be reachable.
  • You are not allowed to use the "neighbor" command in the OSPF configuration.

    Realised that on Router Herring & Salmon OSPF works even without broadcast behind the frame-relay map command below?

    Herring
    frame-relay map ip 192.168.123.1 301
    Salmon
    frame-relay map ip 192.168.123.1 201

    If you enable "broadcast" on router Barracuda it will work. It will forward broadcast/multicast traffic between Herring and Salmon. Once it receives a broadcast on the PVC it will forward it onto the other PVC.
