You want to configure your router to do Frame Relay compression with map statements.
The same Frame Relay compression options that we discussed for subinterfaces are also available with map statements. You can turn on FRF.9 compression by simply including a few additional keywords in the frame-relay map statement as follows:
Central#configure terminal Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. Central(config)#interface Serial0 Central(config-if)#description Frame Relay to branches Central(config-if)#ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0 Central(config-if)#encapsulation frame-relay Central(config-if)#frame-relay map ip 192.168.1.10 101 payload-compression frf9 stac Central(config-if)#end Central#
Or you can opt to use Cisco's proprietary packet-by-packet compression instead:
Central#configure terminal Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. Central(config)#interface Serial0 Central(config-if)#description Frame Relay to branches Central(config-if)#ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0 Central(config-if)#encapsulation frame-relay Central(config-if)#frame-relay map ip 192.168.1.10 101 payload-compression packet-by- packet Central(config-if)#end Central#
The map configuration also supports TCP header compression:
Central#configure terminal Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. Central(config)#interface Serial0 Central(config-if)#description Frame Relay to branches Central(config-if)#ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0 Central(config-if)#encapsulation frame-relay Central(config-if)#frame-relay map ip 192.168.1.10 101 compress Central(config-if)#end Central#
As we discussed in Recipe 10.7, Cisco routers are able to compress the data payload of packets before sending them through Frame Relay circuits. This recipe simply shows how to do the same thing using map statements instead of subinterfaces. Note that the header compression example shown in Recipe 10.7 applies to the physical interface, so the configuration for header compression is identical whether you are using maps or subinterfaces.
You can combine the payload compression option with the other options we discussed in Recipe 10.3 by specifying all of the required options on the same command line:
Central(config)#interface Serial0 Central(config-if)#encapsulation frame-relay Central(config-if)#frame-relay map ip 192.168.1.10 101 ietf broadcast payload- compression frf9 stac Central(config-if)#end
Note that you can specify these keywords in any order, as long as the compression options are last. However, you cannot combine the different compression options with one another.
