Mm fun fact, I thought Cisco wanted to get rid of most datacenter and
lab stuff in San Jose as it's expensive and the seismic activity makes
it not really a great spot for it.

Of course, Frame-Relay is somehow Cisco's little baby as they can't
get rid of it ;-) So yes, frame switch config is still possible, then
again configuration is just easy. (It's quite funny that CCSI
candidates are totally shocked when they get to troubleshoot and
configure a frame switch as it's their job to do when they teach
classes :-)
