The paper discusses some problems and their possible solutions when MPLS is supported by ATM switch. How to design the hardware, software and network management systems of such a switch device that has only one switching platform and one NMS but two sets of control planes at the same time, ATM and MPLS, is studied in details. The application of such a hybrid switch is presented in the last part of the paper.展开更多

Label switching is a new technique in network interconnection, which presents attractive performance of scalable, traffic engineering and large processing capability. This paper discusses the MPLS architecture, mainly focuses on the analysis of some problems in using Multiprotocol Label Switching ( MPLS ) based on the ATM backbone network and its solving mechanisms.展开更多
