Hmmm, well MQC guaranties you that in the locally in the router (PHB),
but what about the frame-relay switch when it sees congestion?

The frame-relay switch only sees L2 packets (Frame-relay bits in detail)
he does not care if you are transmitting Routing, Voice, Video or
Scavenger

Now you are correct about the slow down, but an adaptive shaper can be
compared with legacy Frame-relay Traffic Shaping (FRTS), now the only
difference is that you can do classification with the new style, and
with the old style you just classify all traffic that the router puts ou
on that interface outbound

It says to slow down, this is a queuing exercise, hence FR Traffic
shaping.

so by default you can reserve 75 of interface bw. Reamining 25 is for
protocols. So..why are we worried about protecting the protocols. Isn't
that protected by default?

I would

        Hi all,

        One of the question ask us to configure the following QOS in a
        frame-relay
        interface. The question is " configure the network so that
whenever they
        encounter a congestion, it will slow down the traffic to not
greater
        than
        128Kbps and ensure that no routing traffic is dropped. The
router is
        only
        running OSPF routing protocol.
