It appears that for analysis purposes one has to separate access from switching. How much payload one brings to the exchange depends on port speed and protocol overhead. In that light, Frame Relay can bring similar amount of payload as Ethernet (comparable overhead) and preserve good properties of ATM (traffic flow separation).
What functionality does PVC give you that the ethernet VLAN does not? What is the current max speed of frame relay in any common vendor implementation (I'm talking routers here). -- Mikael Abrahamsson email: swmike@swm.pp.se
