Abstract

The Singapore national high-speed ATM testbed and some of the management issues are highlighted in this paper. In order to achieve inter-operability between different vendor's ATM equipment, it is often necessary to create Permanent Virtual Circuits (PVCs). The design and implementation of a PVC management system for the testbed is reported. It uses TCP/IP protocol for management information exchange and a tree based topology is employed to monitor the PVC information across the testbed. It is a generic model which could also be used for other service management related applications.
