Well, the first thing which comes to mind is the fact that
most Frame Relay networks provide service to more than one customer --
ergo they are public networks. Since your data is being transmitted
across a public network, there is always the possibility of others
"sniffing" your data. This situation is similar to connecting your
lan to the Internet.
