How This Book Is Organized
Although this book could be read cover-to-cover, it is designed to be flexible and allow you to easily move between chapters and sections of chapters to cover just the material that you need more work with. This book is organized into five separate parts. Each part addresses a group of Frame Relay features and solutions with functionalities in common. If you do intend to read them all, the order in the book is an excellent sequence to use.
Part I addresses the basic Frame Relay technology. For beginners, it is recommended to begin reading with the chapters in Part I. Chapters 1 and 2 provide readers with an introduction of Frame Relay technology and an overview of Cisco Frame Relay devices. Chapters 3 and 4 offer suggestions to readers on Frame Relay network planning and how to configure basic Frame Relay commands on Cisco devices. The chapters Part I covers are as follows:
Chapter 1, “Introduction to Frame Relay”- This chapter provides beginners with a basic knowledge of the Frame Relay technology and reinforces concepts of the Frame Relay technology for advanced readers.
Chapter 2, “Cisco Frame Relay Devices and Network Implementation”- This chapter discusses the common physical network devices, interfaces, and cabling used in a Frame Relay network.
Chapter 3, “Planning and Managing Frame Relay Networks”- This chapter describes the common issues involved during Frame Relay network planning and management and offers suggestions on the best approaches.
Chapter 4, “Cisco Frame Relay Configuration”- This chapter shows readers how to configure basic Frame Relay commands on Cisco devices.
Part II of the book looks at the Cisco Frame Relay Solutions for implementing traffic policing and shaping. Frame Relay Traffic Policing and Shaping features allow the Frame Relay users to handle the oversubscription issues commonly encountered on Frame Relay networks. Part II covers the following chapters:
Chapter 5, “Frame Relay Traffic Shaping”- This chapter describes the Frame Relay Traffic Shaping feature and how it can be used to perform rate enforcement of oversubscribing traffic.
Chapter 6, “Cisco Frame Relay Switching Enhancements”- This chapter discusses the Frame Relay Switching feature which allows a traditional Cisco router to be set up as a dedicated Frame Relay switch with full switching capabilities.
Chapter 7, “Cisco Frame Relay End-to-End Keepalive”- This chapter covers the Cisco Frame Relay End-to-End Keepalive feature for managing the true end-to-end status of a Frame Relay Virtual Circuit.
Part III of this book covers the Cisco Frame Relay Solutions for Traffic Management. The chapters presented in Part III describe a host of Cisco Frame Relay features for diverse usages. Part III covers the following chapters:
Chapter 8, “Frame Relay to ATM Interworking”- This chapter explains the Frame Relay to ATM Interworking feature involving FRF.5 and FRF.8. The Frame Relay to ATM Interworking feature allows disparate ATM and Frame Relay protocol to interoperate with each other.
Chapter 9, “Adaptive Frame Relay Traffic Shaping for Interface Congestion”- This chapter discusses the Adaptive Frame Relay Traffic Shaping for Interface Congestion feature. During sustained periods of congestion, this feature allows a Frame Relay router to efficiently perform packet dropping at the Virtual Circuit level rather than at the interface level.
Chapter 10, “Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) over Frame Relay”- This chapter explains the PPP and discusses how PPP can be transported over Frame Relay and its associated benefits.
Chapter 11, “Frame Relay Switched Virtual Circuit”- This chapter explains how SVC operates and compares Frame Relay SVC with PVC.
Chapter 12, “X.25 over Frame Relay: Using the Annex G Feature”- This chapter covers the X.25 over Frame Relay feature, commonly known as Annex G. Annex G provides means to help existing X.25 customers to migrate to the newer and faster Frame Relay technology.
Chapter 13, “Cisco Frame Relay Enhanced Local Management Interface (ELMI)”- This chapter discusses the Cisco-implemented Frame Relay ELMI protocol and how Frame Relay ELMI allows Frame Relay customers to perform QoS autosense and Address Registration for network management.
Chapter 14, “Multilink Frame Relay (FRF.16)- This chapter covers the Multilink Frame Relay feature, based on Frame Relay Forum’s FRF.16. Multilink Frame Relay allows Frame Relay customers to aggregate individual parallel Frame Relay interfaces into a single bundle interface.
Chapter 15, “Compression over Frame Relay”- This chapter explains the use of compression on Frame Relay networks and how compression can be used to attain higher throughput over a slow Frame Relay link.
Chapter 16, “Frame Relay Fragmentation”- This chapter discusses the Cisco implementation of Frame Relay Fragmentation in the Cisco IOS Software. FRF.12, FRF.11 Annex C, and Cisco proprietary Fragmentation are discussed.
Part IV of the book covers the Cisco Frame Relay Solutions for Congestion Management. The chapters in Part IV describe the advanced Frame Relay queuing techniques and features for optimizing Frame Relay transport over slow bandwidth links. Part IV covers the following chapters:
Chapter 17, “Frame Relay Congestion Management”- This chapter introduces readers to the advanced concepts in Frame Relay queuing and discusses the Cisco Frame Relay PIPQ feature in depth.
Chapter 18, “Frame Relay Class-Based Weighted Fair Queuing (CBWFQ) and Low Latency Queuing (LLQ)”- This chapter covers two important advanced Frame Relay queuing techniques suitable for supporting integrated data and voice networks.
Chapter 19, “Frame Relay Queuing and Fragmentation at the Interface”- This chapter discusses the Frame Relay Queuing and Fragmentation at the Interface feature, which provides a scalable method to allow Frame Relay users to implement LLQ and FRF.12 at the Frame Relay interface level.
Chapter 20, “Link Fragmentation and Interleaving (LFI) for Frame Relay Virtual Circuits”- This chapter covers the implementation of the LFI feature for Frame Relay VCs and explains how LFI can be effectively used to maximize the transport of voice and data frames over a low-speed Frame Relay link.
Part V of the book covers the Cisco Frame Relay solutions for congetion avoidance and signaling. The Frame Relay features discussed are Weighted Random Early Detection (WRED) and Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP). The chapters in Part V include the following:
Chapter 21, “Weighted Random Early Detection (WRED) for Frame Relay”- This chapter covers the use of the WRED feature on Frame Relay network and explains how WRED can be used to manage congestion with TCP traffic.
Chapter 22, “Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) for Frame Relay”- This chapter discusses the RSVP for Frame Relay feature, which provides a call admission control mechanism via signalling to allow a reserved bandwidth path to be set up for real-time delay-sensitive traffic.
