the underlying technology of Frame Relay and its components; explores some of the implementation options
available in Frame Relay deployments; covers configuration of Frame Relay including basic configuration,
subinterfaces, point-to-point and multipoint options; discusses rate enforcement and traffic behavior modification
capabilities in Frame Relay; and covers covers the configuration of the traffic shaping options available for Frame
Relay.
when to use queuing and assist in the decision of which queuing technique to use in the event that queuing is
deemed necessary; examines Weighted Fair Queuing (WFQ), Custom Queuing, and Priority Queuing; and
addresses the need for compression in today's enterprise network.
of Network Address Translation (NAT); examines how a simple NAT translation replaces the outbound or inbound
destination address with another address; discusses how to overload an address space with NAT, how to overlap
networks using the same IP addresses, and how to do a simple TCP load distribution with NAT. In addition, this
chapter defines the four NAT address classes, discusses four different NAT configurations and how to verify them,
and concludes with a discussion of port address translation, which is a form of NAT that translates the port address
as well as the network layer address.
fundamentals of and configuration of authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA). More specifically, this
chapter covers how to discriminate interface types which AAA must be able to discern to operate effectively. Also
covered are virtual profiles, which are the next generation of a dialer profile.

your recall as well, they are restated in the Q&A sections. Restating these questions, along with new questions,
provides a larger set of practice questions for when you finish a chapter and for final review when your exam date

and build networks (at least on paper) without the clues inherent in a multiple-choice quiz format.
