Legacy Frame Relay

Legacy FRTS has the following characteristics:
- Enabled with frame-relay traffic-shaping command at physical interface level
- Incompatible with GTS or MQC commands at subinterfaces or physical interface levels
- With FRTS you can enforce bitrate per-VC (VC-granular, unlike GTS), by applying a map-class to PVC
- When no map-class is explicitly applied to PVC, it’s CIR and Tc are set to 56K/125ms by default
- Shaping parameters are configured under map-class frame-relay configuration submode
- Allows to configure fancy-queueing (WFQ/PQ/CQ) or simple FIFO per-VC
- No option to configure fancy-queueing at interface level: interface queue is forced to FIFO (if no FRF.12 is configured)
- Allows for adaptive shaping (throttling down to minCIR) on BECN reception (just as GTS) and option to reflect incoming FECNs as BECNs
- Option to enable adaptive shaping which responds to interface congestion (non-empty interface queue)
