Abstract :
Customer needs demand faster, reliable and integrated solutions to all kind of service needs: voice, text, image, video and data. There is increasingly more demand for speed and throughput on LANs, MANs, and WANs. Broadband ISDN is expected to be the backbone network technology that will integrate LANs, MANs, and WANs in a seamless manner. Initial introduction of ATM network is suggested via an overlay architecture
