Direct Encapsulation

To configure direct encapsulation, use the following command in global configuration mode:

Direct encapsulation is supported over High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) and Frame Relay.

The following command specifies a DLSw remote peer with direct encapsulation over HDLC:

dlsw remote-peer 0 interface serial 01

Direct encapsulation over Frame Relay comes in two forms: DLSw Lite (LLC2 encapsulation) and

Passthrough. Specifying the pass-thru option configures the router so that the traffic will not be locally

acknowledged. (DLSw+ normally locally acknowledges traffic to keep traffic on the WAN to a

minimum.)

The following command specifies a DLSw remote peer with Direct encapsulation with pass-thru over

Frame Relay:

dlsw remote-peer 0 frame-relay interface serial 01 pass-thru

DLSw+ Lite is described in the “DLSw Lite Encapsulation” section on page 291.

DLSw Lite Encapsulation

To configure DLSw Lite encapsulation, use the following command in global configuration mode:

The following command specifies a DLSw remote peer with DLSw Lite encapsulation over Frame

Relay:

dlsw remote-peer 0 frame-relay interface serial 01
