LAN Emulation Over ATM on HP-UX
نویسنده
چکیده
To aid the early adoption of ATM technology as a local area network the ATM Forum has defined the LAN Emulation over ATM specification which aims to present a service interface more compatible with that of previous LANs. This document describes and defines a set of services -LAN Emulation Servicestogether with the components used for their provision. The paper reports on an implementation of the ATM Forum's LAN Emulation specification in a HP-UX (UN*X) environment and describes the system'. architecture, some of the techniques used in the implementation and some of the problems encountered.

متن کاملImplementation of Virtual LANs over ATM WANs
Virtual LANs (VLANs) allow to interconnect users over campus or wide area networks and gives the users the impression as they would be connected to the same local area network (LAN). The implementation of VLANs is based on ATM Forum’s LAN Emulation and LAN/ATM switches providing interconnection of emulated LANs over ATM and the LAN ports to which the user’s end systems are attached to. The pape...

متن کاملLimitation of the Source Routing Protocol in ATM-LANs using the LAN-Emulation
This paper deals with the so-called LAN-Emulation (LAN-E) as specified by the ATMForum, applying the Source Routing Protocol (SRP), which is well known from the Token Ring area. The LAN-E is one possible realisation for the integration of connectionless communication on Local Area Networks (LANs), into the connection oriented Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM). The routing in those emulated or vi...
