Contents:
1. The Challenges of Managing ATM Traffic -- 2. The Traffic Contract -- 3. Traffic Conformance -- 4. Connection Admission Control -- 5. Queuing and Scheduling -- 6. ABR Flow Control -- 7. Congestion Control -- 8. Managing Frame Relay Traffic on ATM Networks -- 9. Managing IP Traffic on ATM Networks -- 10. Designing Scalable Networks -- 11. Summary -- App. A. ITU-T Traffic Management Standard -- App. B. ABR Implementation Comparisons.
Summary: The convergence of multiple networks into single multi-service networks has resulted in explosive growth in the deployment of ATM technology. As increasing numbers of business-critical applications depend on ATM, meeting the quality of service requirements demanded by the various applications, while still achieving efficient resource usage, becomes a critical objective.Quality of Service in ATM Networks brings together the latest traffic management techniques that enable a network to meet such objectives. Network engineers will learn the generic elements required to manage the quality of the multiple services deployed on the network, the implementation of these elements and their relative value with respect to complexity and efficiency.
