ATM public network management in PREPARE

The Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) technology is the basis for the Integrated Broadband Communications (IBC) environment of the envisaged information society. In this paper we present results fi om the application of the ITU-T TMN framework and associated ETSI standards for ATM management within the PREPARE(1) project. In particular, we describe the design of the TMN architecture for the public ATM network part of the PREPARE 1995 Demonstrator testbed and the design and implementation of the ATM network management layer operations system (OS).
