GENERAL FRAME FORMAT Sample Clauses

GENERAL FRAME FORMAT. Figure 2 is the general frame structure for the frame relay privacy protocol (FRPP). All frames are sent on the frame relay virtual connection between end systems and follow the frame format of FRF. 3.1. The frame contents are transparent to the frame relay network. The general frame format in Figure 2 is used for both negotiation control as well as data transfer. Control frames contain the information vital to negotiating the authentication, encryption and key exchange and their parameters. The data transfer frames contain the actual data if sent encrypted. The distinction between control and data frames is explained below.
