Abstract
Virtual path management functions and their mechanisms, which are of importance for effective ATM (asynchronous transfer mode) networks, are proposed. Four major management functions are introduced: maintenance signal transfer, performance monitoring, virtual path testing, and virtual path tracing. Mechanisms for the proposed maintenance signal transfer function are described
