Encapsulation - Avaya G250 Reference

CLI Commands

encapsulation

Use the encapsulation command to set the encapsulation mode for a serial interface. By
default, the serial interface has PPP encapsulation. Use the no form of this command, which
has no parameters, to return to the default.
Use the encapsulation frame-relay option to create a frame-relay interface of the
IETF (RFC1490/RFC2427) type. This command deletes the PPP interface associated with the
current serial interface. The PPP interface cannot be deleted if at least one IP interface is
defined on it. Instead, the following message appears, "You cannot update this L2 interface
since L3 interfaces are defined on it."
