Associates a frame relay Virtual Channel with the current interface. This VC will be in the primary role (that is, will determine the operational status of the interface). Use no frame-relay interface-dlci to delete the association of the VC and the sub-interface and to replace the currently configured interface-DLCI.
Use the optional type parameter to set the encapsulation type. By default, the Frame Relay sub-interface inherits its encapsulation type from the Frame Relay interface encapsulation type.

Note:
Non-IETF encapsulation is compatible with other vendors.
The following example creates and associates DLCI number 17 with the current sub-interface. This VC carries all traffic (if no priority dlci-group is defined for this interface), and becomes in the primary role.
