The document discusses the frame relay technology, a packet-switching protocol that enables medium to long-distance connections through virtual circuits (VCs) instead of dedicated leased lines. It outlines the advantages of frame relay, such as scalability and reduced costs, and introduces essential terminology like data link connection identifier (DLCI), committed information rate (CIR), and types of VCs. Additionally, it provides configuration commands and network diagrams for setting up frame relay switches and routers across multiple office locations in India.
