About this title

From the Author

First ATM book for network designers and implementers...
This book picks up where the others leave off, looking at the whys and hows of implementing the technology within an enterprise internetwork. We focus on implementing the standards from both the ATM Forum and the IETF such as LAN Emulation, Classical IP, and even voice and video. It answers the questions 'which standards are relevant; what is their status; how do they fit together?', 'which devices should be deployed for a given application environment?', 'how do I configure these devices?' and 'what should I watch out for?'

From the Back Cover

David Ginsburg’s book is a practical guide to ATM implementation, focussing strongly on how to integrate ATM within your existing enterprise network. It focusses on the practical aspects of ATM:

• How to deploy ATM in support of data, voice and video traffic
• How to support applications and services across the ATM network
• Which standards are relevant and what is their status
• Which devices should be deployed for any given application environment.

All of these solutions are backed up by extensive implementation scenarios, covering hardware, topologies, configurations, data models and application support. This new edition includes:

• Updated data models, including Label Switching/Tag, IP Switching, and PPP over ATM
• Expanded sections on voice and video integration
• New section detailing ATM over ADSL in the local loop
• Expanded implementation examples
• Updated sections on switch architectures and requirements
