Frame Relay Subinterface
Command List
Using subinterfaces also lets you send routing updates out
the same physical interface on which they were received. Using subinterfaces in
this manner overcomes the split horizon problem that can occur when sending
updates out the same interface. To configure Frame Relay on a subinterface,
complete the following tasks:
- Enable Frame Relay on the interface and set the encapsulation method.
- Create the subinterface, specifying either point-to-point or multipoint.
- For a point-to-point connection or a multipoint connection using inverse ARP, assign the DLCI number to the subinterface.
- For a multipoint connection using static assignments, map DLCIs to protocol addresses.
In addition, you will need to assign a Network layer address
to the subinterface. Do not assign an IP address to the main interface.

Examples
The following commands create a point-to-point subinterface on the first serial interface and assign it to DLCI 44. The subinterface is configured to use inverse ARP.
