Abstract :
This paper describes a gigabit LAN/WAN gateway being developed for the MAGIC gigabit testbed. The gateway interfaces a gigabit LAN developed by Digital´s Systems Research Center and the MAGIC SONET/ATM wide area network. The gateway provides 622 Mb/s throughput between the LAN and WAN environments, and supports either a single STS-12c or four STS-3c tributaries. Traffic measurement capability and support for multiple bandwidth management schemes are provided by this architecture
