4.3 How To Configure Frame Relay for Internet Access
4.3.1 Encapsulation
Be sure to use the encapsulation method required by your ISP. The Prestige supports the following methods.
RFC 1973 (PPP in Frame Relay)
RFC 1973 describes the use of Frame Relay for transporting PPP encapsulated packets. Please refer to RFC 1973
for more information.
RFC 1490
RFC 1490 describes Multiprotocol Interconnect over Frame Relay encapsulation which is an encapsulation method
for carrying network interconnect traffic (both bridging and routing) over a frame relay network. It also describes a
simple fragmentation procedure for carrying large frames over a frame relay network with a smaller MTU
(Maximum Transmission Unit).
