Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) is a protocol that allows data, sound and video being transferred between independent networks via ISDN links to be supplied to, and interpreted by, the various system protocols. ATM and Internet Protocol explains the working of the ATM and B-ISDN network for readers with a basic understanding of telecommunications. It provides a handy reference to everyone working with ATM who may not require the full standards in detail, but need a comprehensive guide to ATM. A substantial section is devoted to the problems of running IP over ATM and there is some discussion of Frame Relay. A pragmatic introduction to the ATM and IP standards The latest practical approaches to running IP over ATM A comprehensive telecommunications glossary

This paper outlines some basic performance characteristics of the Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) over Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM). It also discusses a few solutions to assure acceptable TCP/IP performance over ATM which are implemented by the industry the during the last couple of years. The conclusions in this paper are based on empirical TCP/IP performance test results collected on a DS3 ATM research testbed, architected with commercially available IP and ATM equipment. TCP/IP performance can vary widely and suffer significantly over ATM networks with large Bandwidth Delay products. First, it is essential that the TCP window size matches the Bandwidth Delay product of the end-to-end connection to fully utilize the bandwidth provided by the broadband network. Even if the window size meets this criteria, TCP performance can still be unacceptable, especially if the buffering within the ATM network is limited. A single limited-buffer bottleneck is sufficient to degrade the performance of a TCP connection when multiple traffic sources congest the bottleneck resource, such as in ATM networks with small buffer switches. One approach to assure acceptable TCP/IP performance is to limit the data rate into the bottleneck resource by exercising rate control at the entry to the ATM network. A better solution is to provide sufficient buffering within the ATM network.

A complex networking technology called Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) and a networking protocol called Local Area Network Emulation (LANE) are being integrated into many naval networks without any security-driven naval configuration guidelines. No single publication is available that describes security issues of data delivery and signaling relating to the transition of Ethernet to LANE and ATM. The thesis' focus is to provide: (1) an overview and security analysis of standardized protocols relating to ATM and LANE; (2) an overview and security analysis associated with integrating a Fore Systems Inc., LANE-based ATM network, with an accredited Cisco Systems Inc., Ethernet Virtual LAN (VLAN) network; and (3) associated security-related suggestions for network design and configurations. This thesis identifies possible negative security- related capabilities associated with ATM- and LANE-related protocols; however, many can be mitigated using the identified network design guidelines. Qualitative analysis suggests that the introduction of an ATM/LANE backbone into an existing TCP/IP network does not increase the probability of incorrect destinations receiving and processing corrupted frames. It is hoped that this seminal document will assist in the development of standard security-driven implementation guidelines associated with ATM/LANE-based networks, as well as inform those required to prepare and review associated network Risk Assessments.

Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) Quality of Service (QoS) experiments using the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) were performed for various link delays. The link delay was set to emulate a Wide Area Network (WAN) and a Satellite Link. The purpose of these experiments was to evaluate the ATM QoS requirements for applications that utilize advance TCP/IP protocols implemented with large windows and Selective ACKnowledgements (SACK). The effects of cell error, cell loss, and random bit errors on throughput were reported. The detailed test plan and test results are presented herein. Frantz, Brian D. and Ivancic, William D.
