Abstract :
Frame relay is a significant networking technology in the current data networking environment. Given its inherent advantages, it is particularly well-suited to LAN interconnection. In a public network, frame relay has key advantages for end users in terms of performance and cost efficiency. The effectiveness of frame relay in public networks, the management of public frame relay networks, the evolution from frame to cell services, and product implementations are discussed. The advantages frame relay has over existing technologies are described.<>
