When a bad frame is received, the frame relay service
When a bad frame is received, the frame relay service Simply discard it. It is up to the user to discover that a frame is missing and take the necessary action to recover.
Frame relay is a high-performance WAN protocol that operates at the physical and data link layers of the open system interconnection (OSI) reference model.
Frame relay is a standardized wide area network technology that specifies the physical and data link layers of digital telecommunications channels using a packet switching methodology. It requires a dedicated connection during the transmission period and is not ideal for voice or video, which require a steady flow of transmissions.
Frame relay is considered to be a protocol, which must be carried over a physical link. While useful for connection of LANs, the combination of low throughput, delay variation and frame discard when the link is congested will limit its usefulness to multimedia.
