Title: Signalling Interworking for Asynchronous Transfer Mode Virtual Private Wire Service
State: Active
Authors: Matthew Bocci
Group: Individual Submissions (none)
Date: 2004-11-16
This Internet Draft describes a method for control plane interworking for
Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) pseudo wires, where Provider Edge nodes
(PEs) on both sides of an MPLS Packet Switched Network (PSN) connect edge
ATM networks using the Private Network-Network Interface (PNNI) or the ATM
Inter-Network Interface (AINI). In this method, ATM signalling and routing
messages are tunnelled over the PSN using dedicated pseudo wires, enabling
ATM pseudo wires carrying user traffic to be established and release
dynamically by ATM. The method does not require changes to existing IETF
defined protocols in order to support all features of PNNI and AINI.
