Connection Management for a Prototype Fast Packet ATM B-ISDN Network
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe a call/connection model for multipoint connections in an ATM/B-ISDN network, along with an access protocol that allows clients of the network to create, manipulate and destroy these connections. One-to-one, one-to-many and many-to-many communications are supported by this model. The underlying ATM/B-ISDN network is composed of a collection of interconnected high-speed packet switches or nodes. The implementation of our protocol requires connection management software at each node to control the operation of the underlying switch and to implement the higher level network functionality that binds the nodes together into a cohesive network. We discuss the preliminary design of the software architecture intended for this purpose.

متن کاملB-ISDN (Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network)
The subject of B-ISDN came into being in the late 1980s, together with the concept of Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM). ATM is closely tied to high-speed packet switching by means of specialized switches implemented in hardware. Due to its high speed and packet structure, ATM technology was considered attractive to unify voice, data, and video services. A unification of these services over the ...
