Frame Relay Service in Today's Enterprise Network Environment

Overview Building on the maturity of the Frame Relay technology, this Guide explores those attributes of a carrier that best meet the needs of the customers in supplying Frame Relay service, including full customer service and Frame Relay service network management support. An important perspective is that Frame Relay service is just one of a variety of services available from a major carrier. Frame Relay service is positioned as one solution within the family of services of leased line and ATM. For many customers, hybrid networks, which use all three-service types, will best meet the needs of the corporation.
