Appendix E. ONcore ATM

Address Formats

The ONcore ATM

subsystem supports the

addressing scheme defined

by

the ATM

Forum for addressing end-points

in private ATM networks. The scheme

is

modeled

after

the format of the OSI

Network

Service Access Point (NSAP)

as

specified in

ISO-8348

(CCITT

X.213).

 

 

 

 

As shown in Figure E-1 on page E-2, the 6416SW supports the three initial domain identifier (IDI) formats specified by the ATM Forum:

DCC (Data Country Code)

E.164 (Specific Integrated Service Digital Network Number).

ICD (International Code Designator)

Each of the three ATM address formats is 20 bytes long and consists of two main parts

Network Prefix (13 bytes)

End System Part (7 bytes).
