Normally, Inverse ARP is used to
request the next-hop protocol address for a specific connection.
Responses to Inverse ARP are entered in an address-to-DLCI map (that
is, Frame Relay map) table, as shown in Figure With Frame Relay, you can increase or decrease the keepalive interval. You can extend or reduce the interval at which the router interface sends keepalive messages to the Frame Relay switch. The default is 10 seconds, and the following is the syntax:
where number is the value, in seconds, that is usually 2 to 3 seconds faster (that is, a shorter interval) than the setting of the Frame Relay switch to ensure proper synchronization. If an LMI type is not used in the network, or when you are doing back-to-back testing between routers, you need to specify the DLCI for each local interface by using the following command:
where number is the DLCI on the local interface to be used.
