Actually you can still do both. Below is a configuration showing a router (R3) configured as a Frame Relay switch and as an "end point" in the same network.

If you don't issue and "frame-relay route" commands, then you can still
participate in the frame-relay directly. As soon as you choose to set up
L2 virtual circuits though, you are correct Dave in that you are no longer
playing at Layer 3.

Dave, I had the same misconcept, but my FRSW is working like a normal router
running OSPF / BGP / Mcast ...
BTW is the BB2 of the IE Rack...
