ATM and Interfaces

ATM traffic handling
Ethernet port
3EC 17766 AAAA TCZZA Ed. 01
ATM traffic, arriving at the STWireless, is switched to the Ethernet
port, and WLAN hub.
Inside ATM VCs any protocol can be transported. However, at both
endpoints - that is where the ATM channels are terminated -, the
same protocol must be supported. If not, there will be no
end to end connectivity.
This port terminates a number of ATM connections and extracts
frames from arriving cells and encapsulates frames in departing
cells.
Only frames recognized/supported by the STWireless on
a particular ATM connection are extracted, or encapsulated.
Currently the supported encapsulations are:
For Bridged connections:
"
RFC 1483, Ethernet V2.0/IEEE 802.3 bridged PDUs for both
the LLC/SNAP method and VC MUX method
For MER connections:
"
RFC 1483, Ethernet V2.0/IEEE 802.3 bridged PDUs for both
the LLC/SNAP method and VC MUX method
For PPPoA/PPTP connections:
"
RFC 2364, PPP PDUs for both the LLC/NLPID method and
VC MUX method
For Routed PPP connections:
"
RFC 2364, PPP PDUs for both the LLC/NLPID method and
VC MUX method
For Routed CIP connections:
"
RFC 1483 LLC/SNAP method for Routed PDUs.
