Implementation of Virtual LANs over ATM WANs
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 paper discusses possible implementation architectures and describes advanced features such as ATM short-cuts, QoS, and redundancy concepts.

Moving towards ATM: LAN/WAN evolution and experimentation at the University of Oregon
Between April of 1994 and March of 1995 the University of Oregon worked with U S WEST and a number of other participants in an extensive technical trial of ATM equipment and services. This paper shares experiences and lessons learned during that trial. A primary area of emphasis during the trial was a complex mixture of ATM LAN and WAN capabilities. ATM connectivity was extended to high-end des...
متن کاملA Study of Fairness for ATM ABR Service Based on Doubly Finite Queu
A general goal of the Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) network is to support connections a cross Local-Area Networks (LANs), Metropolitan Area Networks (MANs) and Wide Area Networks (WANs). However, in Available Bit Rate (ABR) service, different treatments are offered according to different Round Trip Times (RTTs) of connections. To improve the above unfairness, this study presents Doubly Finit...
