Prerequisites for Configuring Frame Relay over L2TPv3
Before configuring Frame Relay over L2TPv3, you should understand how to configure Layer 2 VPNs and Frame Relay. See the “Additional References” section in this chapter for pointers to the feature modules that explain how to configure and use Layer 2 VPNs and Frame Relay.
Restrictions for Configuring Frame Relay over L2TPv3
The following functionalities are not supported:
Information About Configuring Frame Relay over L2TPv3
Frame Relay over L2TPv3 Overview
Frame Relay over L2TPv3 enables provider edge (PE) devices to forward Frame Relay frames to pseudowires based on the receiving interface and the Data-Link Connection Identifier (DLCI) number. PE devices also provide Local Management Interface (LMI)-based signaling to customer edge (CE) devices, emulating Frame Relay switches.
In Frame Relay over L2TPv3, the Frame Relay header is retained at the ingress PE device. The device does not reconstruct the Frame Relay header before forwarding packets to the CE device.
The figure below shows a Frame Relay over L2TPv3 topology.
Frame Relay over L2TPv3 supports the following functionalities:
