Re: FRTS Fragmentation on a subinterface?

Eric,
         On all Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) and Multilink PPP (MLP) links,
TX-ring
buffer size is automatically configured, and you cannot change these default
buffer values.On Frame Relay links, the TX-ring is for the main interface,
which all
subinterfaces also use. The default TX-ring buffer size is 64 packets(Per
Main T1 interface). You mightneed to change this setting when the
subinterface is very small or there are many
subinterfaces.
