Learning Objectives
Practice Frame Relay troubleshooting skills.

Scenario
In this lab, you will practice troubleshooting a misconfigured Frame Relay environment. Load or
have your instructor load the configurations below into your routers. Locate and repair all errors in
the configurations and establish end-to-end connectivity. Your final configuration should match
the topology diagram and addressing table. All passwords are set to cisco except the enable
secret password which is set to class.

Task 1: Prepare the Network

Step 1: Cable a network that is similar to the one in the topology diagram.

Step 2: Clear any existing configurations on the routers.

Step 3: Import the configurations.

Task 2: Troubleshoot and Repair the Frame Relay Connection Between R1 and R2.

Errors R1:
1) FR map points to wrong DLCI for IP 172.18.221.2.
2) FR map missing statement for R1 local Serial interface.
Errors R2:
1) LMI type incorrectly set to ANSI.
2) Serial 0/1 interface 'administratively shutdown'.
3) FR map missing statement for R2 Serial interface.
4) FR map missing 'broadcast' parameter for DLCI map to R1.
Errors FR-Switch:
1) 'show frame-relay pvc' command only shows 1 active Serial interface.
2) S0/0/1 missing a 'frame-relay route' statement.

Task 3: Document the Router Configurations

On each router, issue the show run command and capture the configurations.

Task 4: Clean Up
Erase the configurations and reload the routers. Disconnect and store the cabling. For PC hosts
that are normally connected to other networks, such as the school LAN or to the Internet,
reconnect the appropriate cabling and restore the TCP/IP settings.
