Configuring Voice over IP
a low-bandwidth (< 1.5 Mbps) WAN circuit, but not if you have a high-bandwidth (> 1.5 Mbps) WAN
circuit. The recommended fragmentation and interleaving methodology is FRF.12 for Voice over Frame
Relay, Multilink PPP for VoIP-over-PPP leased lines.

Traffic Shaping for Frame Relay
You must regulate traffic flow so that packets arrive at their destination only as fast as the destination
can handle them. You do so by buffering packets that are generated faster than a configured value, and
releasing them at that value. It is especially important that you enable traffic shaping in Frame Relay
networks, but not in conjunction with RSVP. Do not enable traffic shaping with PPP leased lines.

Successful traffic shaping on a Frame Relay network requires that you set not just this but many other
