Increasing Bandwidth

4.
Enabling multilink unbinds physical lines from the interface. As well as
binding each new physical interface to the Frame Relay interface, you
must rebind the original line:
Syntax: bind <bind number> [e1 | t1] <slot>/<port> <tdm group number> frame-
relay <interface number>
Use a different bind number for each physical interface. For example, you
might enter:
ProCurve(config-fr 1)# bind 1 t1 1/1 1 fr 1
ProCurve(config-fr 1)# bind 2 t1 2/1 1 fr 1
5.
Assign the Frame Relay interface a bundle ID:
Syntax: frame-relay multilink bid <string>
If you do not already have a Frame Relay connection running, you must
also:
6.
Activate the Frame Relay interface:
ProCurve(config-fr 1)# no shutdown
7.
Add at least one PVC by configuring a Frame Relay subinterface:
ProCurve(config-fr 1)# interface frame-relay 1.101
8.
Enter the DLCI for the PVC:
Syntax: frame-relay interface-dlci <DLCI>
9.
Assign the Frame Relay subinterface an IP address:
Syntax: ip address [dhcp | <A.B.C.D> <subnet mask | /prefix length>]
For example, you might enter:
ProCurve(config-fr 1.101)# ip address 10.2.2.1 /30
The Frame Relay subinterface can also act as a DHCP client and take a
dynamic address from a connecting server. Use the dhcp option. The
interface can also take an address from another router interface, such as
an Ethernet interface:
Syntax: ip unnumbered <interface ID>
You might also need to change the signaling type and role for the Frame Relay
interface. For more information about configuring Frame Relay, see the Basic
Management and Configuration Guide, Chapter 6: Configuring the Data
Link Layer Protocol for E1, T1, and Serial Interfaces.
