SROS Command Line Interface Reference Guide Frame Relay Sub-Interface Config Command Set

Command Modes

(config-interface)# Interface Configuration Mode required.

Valid interfaces include: Ethernet (eth 0/1), virtual PPP interfaces (ppp 1), virtual

Frame Relay sub-interfaces (fr 1.20), and VLAN interfaces.

Functional Notes

DHCP allows interfaces to acquire a dynamically assigned IP address from a configured DHCP server on

the network. Many Internet Service Providers (ISPs) require the use of DHCP when connecting to their

services. Using DHCP reduces the number of dedicated IP addresses the ISP must obtain. Consult your

ISP to determine the proper values for the client-id and hostname fields.

Usage Examples

The following example enables DHCP operation on the virtual frame-relay interface (labeled 1.16):

(config)#interface frame-relay 1.16

(config-fr 1.16)#ip address dhcp

hostname Optional.

By default, the hostname is the name configured using the Global

Configuration

hostname command.

“<string>”
