Configure Cisco 2509 For Frame-Relay
While doing my CCIE studying I configured an old 2509 I had to act as a frame relay switch. This is more or less just a quick dump of my config for posterity 😉
IOS version c2500-i-l.121-27b.bin

Frame Relay does bring back some memories, I had a 3620 hooked up to 6 prelude DSU/CSU’s for a MLFR setup. With all the v.35 cables it looked like an octopus. Oh what a day it was when I unplugged that beast, it should never take 6 RU to get 9 Mbit. Still there was something to be said for that vs plugging in an ethernet port I think its because frame rely etc was so telco.
