6.0 Traffic Management
6.1 CN8237 Overview
The traffic management capabilities of ATM differentiate it from other
communication technologies. The CN8237 xBR Traffic Manager implements the
complete set of ATM Service Categories as defined in the ATM Forum’s Traffic
Management TM 4.1 specification. These categories include CBR, Real-Time and
Non-Real-Time Variable Bit Rate (rt-VBR and nrt-VBR), UBR, GFR, and ABR.
Table 6-1
provides a list of ATM attributes detailed in the TM 4.1 specification (that
is, traffic parameters, QoS parameters, and feedback characteristics), and identifies
whether the CN8237 supports these for each service category. The shaded areas do
not indicate that the service category and attribute are undefined for the SAR—they
indicate that the TM 4.1 specification does not detail them.
