A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Pseudo Wire Emulation Edge to Edge Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Encapsulation Methods for Transport of ATM Cells/Frame
Over IP and MPLS Networks
Author(s) : L. Martini et al.
Filename : draft-ietf-pwe3-atm-encap-00.txt
Pages : 37
Date : 2002-10-29
A framework for providing various Layer 1 and Layer 2 services over a
Packet Switched Network has been described in [3]. This draft
provides encapsulation formats and guidelines for transporting a
variety of ATM services over a PSN. This draft merges three internet
drafts previously submitted to the PWE3 working group. These are:
draft-martini-atm-encap-mpls-01.txt; draft-koleyni-pwe3-app-cell-
over-psn-01.txt; and draft-bocci-pwe3-app-frame-over-psn-00.txt. This
draft describes two methods of ATM cell encapsulation, one-to-one
mode based on draft-koleyni-pwe3-app-cell-over-psn-01.txt and n-to-
one mode (n=>1) based on draft-martini-atm-encap-mpls-01.txt. This
draft describes two methods of AAL5 encapsulation, PDU mode based on
draft-bocci-pwe3-app-frame-over-psn-00.txt and SDU mode based on
draft-martini-atm-encap-mpls-01.txt. It includes an applicability
statement for each service along with ATM OAM handling and QoS
guidelines. Please note that this section will change in the next
revisions.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
