[OLUG] WAN/Frame Relay questions

I realize this is a little off the Linux topic but thought some of you
networking guru's might be able to answer a couple questions for me.

1st Question:  If a business wanted to set up a couple hundred PVC's over
public frame relay would there be a single frame relay switch used or a
number of frame relay switches?  I am under the impression there are a
number of frame relay switches used which leads me to my second question.

2nd Question:  How is the source and destination router identification
maintained between frame relay switches?  Is there a different type of
encapsulation used between frame relay switches?

Any help or links where I might be able to find information on this would be
appreciated.  Thanks.
