What I keep trying to figure out is which specific FR tasks are "highly 
unlikely" to appear on lab now that the dedicated frame switch is gone so that 
I don't have to sweat the details on them.  Many tasks such as the 10+ 
different ways to configure FR traffic shaping, auto-install over frame, 
bridging over frame, etc., in my opinion are very esoteric at this point in 
time (i.e. I haven't seen them in the wild in YEARS) so I have a hard time 
motivating myself to really understand the details and have been satisfied 
knowing the "high level details" on some of these FR-specific tasks.  Would you 
suggest this is a bad game plan?

Thanks,
Dan

A *dedicated* Frame Relay switch is not present in the configuration section of 
the exam, which doesn't mean there's no FR switch in it. It just means that one 
of the topology routers may double as a pre-configured or unconfigured FR 
switch in it.

In the troubleshooting section of the exam, a dedicated FR switch(es) may still 
be there.

For those two reasons, until FR is completely gone from the blueprint, we won't 
be removing a dedicated FR switch from our topologies. In some of our labs 
(like for example One Week Lab Experience labs), services of the preconfigured 
switch are barely used and we ask students to configure one of their routers as 
FR switches.

And no - that doesn't mean you can stop worrying about the LIM. On the contrary 
:-)
