Address mapping error Syntax Description:
• protocol—Supported protocol, bridging, or logical link control
keywords: appletalk, decnet, dlsw, ip, ipx, llc2, rsrb, vines, and
xns.
• protocol-address—Destination protocol address.
• dlci—DLCI number used to connect to the specified protocol
address on the interface.
• broadcast—(Optional) IETF

form of Frame Relay encapsulation.
Used when the router or access server is connected to another
vendor’s equipment across a Frame Relay network.
• cisco—(Optional) Cisco encapsulation method.
• payload-compress packet-by-packet—(Optional) Enables FRF.9
compression using the Stacker method.
• compress frf9 stac—If the CSA is not available, compression is
performed in the software installed on the VIP2 (distributed
compression). If the router contains a CSA
3
, compression is
performed in the CSA hardware (hardware compression). If the
VIP2 is not available, compression is performed in the router’s
main processor (software compression).
• hardware-options—(Optional) One of the following keywords:
distributed, software, or csa.
PVC

is not set up Step 1 Use the show running-config privileged exec command to view the
configuration of the router. Make sure a PVC is set up between the
routers on each side of the PSN using the x25 pvc n vines address
interface configuration command.
Step 2 If the command is not present, add it to the configuration.
VINES broadcasts are not forwarded
across the PSN
Step 1 Use the show running-config command to examine the
configuration of the router. Make sure the vines propagate interface
configuration command is configured on the serial interface of the
router that provides the serverless packet-switched node service.
Step 2 If the command is not present, add it to the configuration.
VINES broadcasts not forwarded to
all router interfaces
Step 1 Use the show running-config privileged exec command to view the
router configuration. Check whether the vines serverless broadcast
interface configuration command is configured on the router.
Step 2 If the command is not present, configure the router using the vines
serverless broadcast command. This command configures the
router to always flood VINES broadcasts on all interfaces.
Note: The vines serverless broadcast command is enabled by default in
Cisco IOS Release 10.3 and later.
