Abstract
Connectionless servers may be used to provide connectionless data services in ATM wide area networks. However, their performance might be a critical point, since, like with any other server, undersized connectionless servers might become bottlenecks in the network. This paper aims at providing some insight on this issue. We present the design and the implementation of a portable SMDS (Switched Multi-megabits Data Service) server, and discusses performance related aspects of a SMDS server-based connectionless network implemented in our laboratory. We conclude on the interest and perspectives of this kind of network architecture.
