Another aspect of the Frame Relay service that often needs to be tested is the
provisioning as defined by the CIR (Committed Information Rate).
Note: This measurement is sometimes called Service Level Agreement (SLA)
testing or Service Level Definitions see the Frame Relay Forum FRF.13 imple-
mentation agreement.

The Advisor transmits controlled packets into the network according to an
established traffic contract between the user and the network, defined by the
Frame Relay Forum FRF.13. This application characterizes the reliability of the
Frame Relay Network by simulating user traffic and optional background traffic.
There are three possible configurations:
- Transmission of traffic between two advisors connected from end to end
- Physical network loopback utilizing only one Advisor
- Generation of IP-ICMP requests from the Advisor to a network device
This test runs with LMI emulation off and on for the following options:
UNI-User (CPE) Emulation
UNI-Network (Switch) Emulation
NNI Emulation (bi-directional polling)
