What frame relay switch is causing MCI/Worldcom such grief?

And if the answer is yes, then what vendor made the switches, etc. etc...?

My understanding is that a year or two ago the frame relay was on
Cascade and the ATM on GDC. They moved the ATM bit onto Cisco/Stratacom
BPX services (and we've seen no problems on this service for the
duration to my knowledge), but the FR network is now independent of
any other. I *believe* it still runs on the Cascades.

Hmm... Didn't AT&T have a FR meltdown not so long ago?
