Abstract :
In an ATM network, a virtual path (VP) is a labeled path which can be used to transport a bundle of virtual connections (VCs) and to manage the resources used by these connections. The ATM multimedia leased line service is provided across user-to-user VPs. The customers can increase/decrease the VP bandwidth according to their demand. This paper proposes a method to derive the least required bandwidth on a VP which is the minimum amount of bandwidth estimated to satisfy the QoS requirement of the VCs. The least required bandwidth can be a warranty of the VP resource reallocation
