Abstract

New communication services such as Frame Relay, Switched Multimegabit Data Service (SMDS) and Broadband Integrated Services Digital Networks (B-ISDN) will require changes in the public data network. In the future, the public network will also need to respond to users’ requirements for bandwidth-on-demand. Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) technology can provide these capabilities and can provide a versatile network that can support many different services. New services such as Frame Relay and SMDS can be transported and switched by a public ATM network. This paper will address some of the issues involved in supporting these services on an ATM platform and will provide solutions that have been used in an existing ATM switch.
