Abstract

An overview and characteristics of the broadband integrated services digital network (ISDN) that is based on asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) is presented. ATM layer management across the user network interface (UNI) is discussed. The UNI is described, as are the ATM cell structure and its role in management protocols. There are two management protocol models which are explained; however, the focus is on the ATM layer management protocol. An overview of network management functions is provided. Some examples of ATM layer management functions based on the generic functions are provided.<>
