WAN terms
WAN connection types
Broadband access using cable or DSL
Cable network and terms
xDSL connection from home user to
central office. All types of DSL are layer
1 technologies.
PPPoE with ADSL
DTE-DCE-DTE WAN
DTE-DCE-DTE WAN connection: Clocking is
typically provided by the DCE network to
routers. In nonproduction environments, a DCE
network is not always present.
Cisco’s HDLC frame format:
Each vendor’s HDLC has a proprietary data
field to support multiprotocol environments.

Before Frame Relay
After Frame Relay
DLCIs are local to your router.
RouterA uses DLCI 100 to send data to RouterB.
Configuring Subinterfaces

Corp(config-subif)#frame-relay interface-dlci 102
Corp(config-subif)#int s0/0.103
Corp(config-subif)#ip address 10.1.13.1 255.255.255.0
Corp(config-subif)#frame-relay interface-dlci 103
Frame Relay mappings
So why can’t RouterA talk to RouterB across the Frame Relay network in
Figure 7.20? To find that out, take a close look at the frame-relay map
statement. See the problem now? You cannot use a remote DLCI to
communicate to the Frame Relay switch; you must use your DLCI number! The
mapping should have included DLCI 100 instead of DLCI 200.
Frame Relay routing problems
The correct line for RouterA would look like this:
frame-relay map ip 172.16.100.1 100 broadcast
Frame Relay OSPF routing problems
Since Frame Relay nonbroadcast multi-access (NBMA) networks won’t allow broadcasts or
multicasts, an OSPF router will not attempt to dynamically discover any OSPF neighbors on
the Frame-Relay interface. Also, since this means that elections won’t be allowed, you’d have
to statically configure OSPF neighbors, plus the Corp router would need to be configured as a
DR. But the easiest way to fix this problem is to use the command ip ospf network
point-to-multipoint on all router Frame-Relay interfaces
Frame Relay EIGRP routing problems
The hosts behind the Corp router can communicate to all hosts in all remote networks,
but hosts in SF, LA, and NY cannot communicate to each other.
Let’s take a look at the configuration of the Corp router:
interface Serial0/0
ip address 192.168.10.1 255.255.255.0
encapsulation frame-relay
frame-relay interface-dlci 101
frame-relay interface-dlci 102
frame-relay interface-dlci 103
We can solve this problem with
subinterfaces.
Take a look at the Corp router’s new configuration with subinterfaces,
which solves the split horizon issues. Here are the steps to take:
1. Remove the IP address and interface-dlci commands from
under the physical interface.
2. 2.
Create a subinterface (logical interface) for each PVC.
3. Design and implement a separate subnet (address space) for each
subinterface.
4. Add the command frame-relay interface-dlci dlci under
each subinterface.
interface Serial0/0
no ip address (notice there is no IP address on the physical interface!)

Example of using a VPN
Benefits of VPN’s
Security
VPNs can provide very good security by using advanced encryption and authentication protocols, which
will help protect your network from unauthorized access. IPsec and SSL fall into this category. Secure
Sockets Layer (SSL) is an encryption technology used with web browsers, which has native SSL
encryption, and are known as Web VPN. You can also use the Cisco AnyConnect SSL VPN client
installed on you PC to provide a SSL VPN solution, as well as the Clientless Cisco SSL VPN. Cost
Savings
By connecting the corporate remote offices to their closest Internet provider, and then creating a VPN
tunnel with encryption and authentication, I gain a huge savings over opting for traditional leased pointto-point lines. This also permits higher bandwidth links and security, all for far less money than
traditional connections.
Scalability
VPNs scale very well to quickly bring up new offices or have mobile users connect securely while
traveling or when connecting from home.
Compatibility with broadband technology
For remote and traveling users and remote offices, any Internet access can provide a connection to the
corporate VPN. This allows users to take advantage of the high-speed Internet access of DSL or cable
modems.
