  1. Chapter 18Frame Relay • Homework: • p 452 38, 39, 51,52,53

  2. Chapter 18Frame Relay • Frame Relay Layers • Frame Relay Operation • Implementation

  3. Frame Relay • A packet switching WAN technology developed to provide more efficient transmission than X.25.

  4. Frame Relay (continued) • Frame Relay operates in two layers. • Frame Relay has less overhead than X.25. • Frame Relay does not implement error and flow control. • Frame relay supports variable data transmission rate, Suitable for bursty traffic. • Frame Relay operates at speeds of 1.544 Mbps and 44.376 Mbps

  5. Frame Relay (continued) • Disadvantages of Frame Relay • Frame relay supports variable data transmission rate, not suitable for delay sensitive data • Frame Relay allows variable frame size of up to 9000 bytes • Congestion control must be implemented (variable data rate) • Not high enough data transmission rate

  6. X.25 Traffic

  7. Frame Relay Traffic

  8. Frame Relay Layers

  9. Frame Relay Operation • Frame Relay operates on two principals: • If there is any problem with the frame, discard it. • The end user systems are responsible for error recovery.

  10. Frame Relay Operation (continued) • Users are connected to a Frame Relay interface (DCE) through a router or a bridge (DTE).

  11. Frame Relay Operation (continued) • Frame Relay provides two types of connections : • Permanent virtual connections (PVC) • Switched virtual connections (SVC) • Virtual circuit address are used and are implemented at the data link layer. • Each circuit is identified by data link connection identifier (DLCI).

  12. Congestion • The condition of a network when there is not enough bandwidth to support the current traffic load. • Effect of congestion: • Decreases the throughout • Increases delay

  13. Congestion Control • Implicit • Explicit (used by Frame relay) • Backward explicit congestion notification (BECN) • Forward explicit congestion notification (FECN)

  14. Frame Relay Frame

  15. Congestion Control • Backward explicit congestion notification (BECN) • Switch can use the response frame to notify the sender. • Or • Switch can use a predefined connection to send a notification to sender.

  16. Congestion Control • Forward explicit congestion notification (FECN) • The receiver is notified of congestion. • The receiver can delay the acknowledgment therefore, forcing the sender to slow down.

  17. Leaky Bucket Algorithm

  18. Access Rate • The Access Rateof a connection is the maximum amount of bandwidth a customer will have available at any given time. • If user is connected to frame network over T1 then CIR is 1.54

  19. Committed Burst Size (Bc) • The Bcof a connection is the minimum amount of bandwidth a customer will have available over a period of time • Ex: 4k for 4 sec

  20. Committed Information Rate (CIR) • The CIRof a connection is the minimum amount of bandwidth a customer will have available at any given time.

  21. CIR • Bc =maximum committed burst amount of data that network agrees to transmit under normal condition, over time T. • Be =(excess burst size)maximum amount of data in excess of Bc that network will attempt to transmit under normal condition, over time T.(uncommitted) • Data in excess of Bc + Bewill be dropped
