FRF.12
Encyclopedia
The FRF.12 specification describes the method of fragmenting Frame Relay
frames into smaller frames.
concerns often arise. This is because a frame from one virtual circuit may occupy the line for a long enough period of time to disrupt a service guarantee given to another virtual circuit.
is a well known method for addressing this. An incoming long packet is broken up into a sequence of shorter packets and enough information is added to reassemble that long frame at the far end.
