IBM recently announced new "frame relay" data transmission
technology.

Questions:

Does the frame relay interface exist on the 37xx communication
controllers as well as the 3174 cluster controllers?

Do higher layers provide the data integrity not provided by frame
relay?

What does it cost to upgrade a 37xx communication controller to
support a frame relay interface?

Replies with answers to these questions would be greatly appreciated.
