PING Thyself Yet Again (PPPoFR)!

Following along the idea of pinging yourself (depending on where you live, there may actually be laws against that!), there are some further problems if we happen to be running PPP over Frame-Relay.
I will stick with the same pretty graphic that Anthony provided in his entry between R3 and R5!
Frame-Relay Network
So let’s start with some basic Frame-Relay configuration and move up from there.
R3
int s1/0
encap frame
no shut
R5
int s0/0/0
encap frame
no shut
INE-R3(config-if)#do sh frame pvc | in ACT
DLCI = 301, DLCI USAGE = UNUSED, PVC STATUS = INACTIVE, INTERFACE = Serial1/0
DLCI = 302, DLCI USAGE = UNUSED, PVC STATUS = INACTIVE, INTERFACE = Serial1/0
DLCI = 304, DLCI USAGE = UNUSED, PVC STATUS = INACTIVE, INTERFACE = Serial1/0
DLCI = 305, DLCI USAGE = UNUSED, PVC STATUS = ACTIVE, INTERFACE = Serial1/0
INE-R3(config-if)#

INE-R5(config-if)#do sh frame pvc | in ACT
DLCI = 501, DLCI USAGE = LOCAL, PVC STATUS = INACTIVE, INTERFACE = Serial0/0/0
DLCI = 502, DLCI USAGE = LOCAL, PVC STATUS = INACTIVE, INTERFACE = Serial0/0/0
DLCI = 503, DLCI USAGE = LOCAL, PVC STATUS = ACTIVE, INTERFACE = Serial0/0/0
DLCI = 504, DLCI USAGE = LOCAL, PVC STATUS = INACTIVE, INTERFACE = Serial0/0/0
DLCI = 513, DLCI USAGE = LOCAL, PVC STATUS = INACTIVE, INTERFACE = Serial0/0/0
INE-R5(config-if)#
I’m at least active between R3 and R5 now, so this is a good thing! Now, to configure PPPoFR (let’s say our requirement was to authenticate the routers) we set up a Virtual Template… Let’s start with the basics and we’ll add complications in a little bit! :)

R3
int virtual-template 35
ip address 173.100.0.3 255.255.255.0
R5
int virtual-template 53
ip address 173.100.0.5 255.255.255.0
The virtual-template numbers are irrelevant. I just chose to match the router to/from for simplicity. I can only go up to 200 though, otherwise I’d match the DLCI number!
The virtual-template by itself though doesn’t do anything. It just serves as a template (keep this in mind for later). So let’s enable it!
R3
int s1/0
frame-relay interface-dlci 305 ppp virtual-template 35
R5
int s0/0/0
frame-relay interface-dlci 503 ppp virtual-template 53
If all is good we’ll see:
*Dec  3 16:38:50.355: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface Virtual-Access2, changed state to up
*Dec  3 16:38:51.479: %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface Virtual-Access2, changed state to up

INE-R5(config-fr-dlci)#
Yes, and my Virtual-Access interface is even listed FIRST! So it SHOULD work?!? Well, sorta. :) It’s IS indeed about what comes first, but it isn’t the “ip interface” list to be concerned with. It’s the router’s view of interface numbering and for that we’ll consult SNMP!
INE-R5(config)#do sh snmp mib ifmib ifindex
Virtual-Access2: Ifindex = 12
Serial0/0/0: Ifindex = 3
FastEthernet0/1: Ifindex = 2
Serial0/1/0: Ifindex = 4
VoIP-Null0: Ifindex = 5
Null0: Ifindex = 7
Virtual-Access1: Ifindex = 11
Async0/1/0: Ifindex = 9
Async0/0/0: Ifindex = 8
SSLVPN-VIF0: Ifindex = 6
FastEthernet0/0: Ifindex = 1
Virtual-Template53: Ifindex = 10
INE-R5(config)#
Notice that the Virtual Template has an index value of 10 while the Virtual Access interface has an index of 12. THAT’s why we try to send things out the virtual-template first. And as we said before, the template is not really an interface. In fact, we see it as down/down when we look at “show ip interface brief” above.
Cool. Now we know WHY, but that doesn’t make it work now does it? :)
We have a couple methods to use to make it work (we’ll do one on each router just for fun). First, let’s use “ip unnumbered”.
R3
int virtual-template 35
ip unnumbered loopback 0
int loopback 0
ip addr 173.100.0.3 255.255.255.0
INE-R3(config-if)#do ping 173.100.0.5

Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 173.100.0.5, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 32/32/36 ms
INE-R3(config-if)#do ping 173.100.0.3

Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 173.100.0.3, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/1/1 ms
INE-R3(config-if)#
Tah-dah… I can ping the other side still AND myself.
In case you aren’t allowed to use IP Unnumbered at all, there’s another method.
R5
int virtual-template 53
no ip addr
ppp multilink-group 53
int multilink 53
ip addr 173.100.0.5 255.255.255.0
Pings won’t work though!

And once again, my pings to the other side work well, AND I can ping myself again.
In both of these methods we are kinda “cheating” in that we aren’t REALLY pinging the PPPoFR link because it simply will not allow that to occur. We are pinging other interfaces that do indeed allow direct self-pinging!
So now you know, just in case you run into things in the lab how to make it work!
Since I mentioned we’d make things more entertaining, I’ll keep the suspense building. Come back tomorrow! :)

Cisco Certification Exams are also conducted by Network Bulls in its Gurgaon Branch.
Network Bulls don't provide any Cisco CCNA, CCNP simulations for practice. They Provide High End Trainings on Real topologies for high tech troubleshooting on real Networks. There is a list of Top and best Training Institutes in India, which are providing CCNA and CCNP courses, but NB has a different image from market. Many students has given me their feedbacks and reviews about Network bulls Institute, but there were no complaints about any fraud from this institute. Network Bulls is such a wonderful place to get trained from Industry expert Trainers, under guidance of CCIE Certified Engineers.
