Abstract

The ubiquity of IP associated with the acknowledgment of ATM as a key switching technology has motivated an increasing interest towards the design of a more efficient way of operating IP over ATM networks. This approach is known under the name Label Swapping. A few studies have addressed the primary issue of providing simultaneously quality of service and multicast. We propose a solution where we mix an RSVP architecture with one Label Swapping technique called IP Switching. We discuss problems that arise when using cut-through associated with an RSVP multicast model and propose an application for an IPv6 environment over an ATM switching hardware.
