AITTM
The E-Lines and X-25 n/w were not meeting the requirements of the users. The user was looking at higher data rates, lower costs, efficient data handling of bursty data transmission and less overheads.

Disadvantages
The data rates of 44.376 Mbps is still not high enough for B-ISDN protocols. Frame Relays allows variable length frames. This may create varying delay for users. Not suitable for sending delay sensitive data such as real time voice or video

SVC
Each time two DTEs want to communicate a new VC should be established This is done by the services of another protocol that has network layer and network layer addresses (such as ISDN or IP) The signaling mechanism of this other protocol makes a connection request using the network layer address. After connection phase the VC is established DTEs can exchange data.

Congestion Control
Occurs if data rate is greater than that allowed by network resources. (limited buffer size) Frame Relay does not use flow control at data link layer and does not have network layer. Frame Relay allows users to transmit bursty traffic and therefore has potential to congest the network. Two approaches are adopted for congestion control one is congestion avoidance and the other is traffic control.

Congestion Avoidance
Backward Explicit Congestion Notification (BECN
Warns sender of congestion so that it can decrease the data rate for transmission. In full duplex mode response frames from the receiver or predefined connection (DLCI=1023) frame, from switch are used for this specific purpose. Senders response to the warning is by reducing the rate.
Discarding
If user does not respond to congestion notice the Frame Relay discards frames. Which Frames are discarded are subjected to section called traffic control.

Traffic Control
Traffic Control
The user in the Frame Relay is required to negotiate the traffic parameters before data is send on the network. This parameter includes Access Rate, Committed Burst Size, Committed information rate and excess burst size.
Access Rate
Access rate is defined in bits/sec. Depends on band width of channel connecting user and network. User can never exceed this rate.

If area is less than Bc no discarding If area is b/w Bc and Bc + Be possible discarding if congestion. If area is greater than Bc + Be than discarding of frames at first switch.
