Abstract :
Experiments in asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) wide area network (WAN) environments are discussed in this work. The lessons learned through practical experiences with ATM systems and how these can be applied to improving performance are presented. Factors ranging from the transport protocol to the equipment used and the network conditions are considered
