VCI Phases
Two approaches for the VC setup
Permanent virtual circuit (PVC): Switched virtual circuit (SVC): setup, data transfer, teardown

ATM
Asynchronous Transfer Mode ATM is the cell relay protocol designed by ATM forum and adopted by ITU-T ATM uses asynchronous TDM Cells are transmitted along virtual circuits Design Goals
Large bandwidth and less susceptible to noise degradation Interface with existing systems without lowering their effectiveness Inexpensive implementation Support the existing telecommunications hierarchies Connection-oriented to ensure accurate and predictable delivery Many functions are hardware implementable

The variety of packet sizes makes traffic unpredictable A cell network uses the cell as the basic unit of data exchange
A cell is defined as a small, fixed sized block of information Cells are interleaved so that non suffers a long delay A cell network can handle real-time transmissions Network operation is more efficient and cheaper

Asynchronous TDM
It uses Fixed-Size slots. Asynchronous TDM- Fill a slot with a cell from any i nput channel that has a cell From any input channel th at has a cell; the slot is empty if none of the channel h as a cell to send. It multiplex cells coming from different channels.

Virtual Connection
Connection between two endpoints is accomplished through
Transmission path (TP)- Set of All Path That connects two Switches are is Called TP Virtual path (VP)- Each path that connects two switches is called VP Virtual circuit (VC)- Each lane in that path is called VP

Identifiers
VPI(Virtual path identifier) and VCI(Virtual Circuit Identifier) These two levels of identifier are used to identify the route fro m one endpoint to another endpoint. The lengths of the VPIs for the UNIs and NNIs are different. In UNI, the VPI is 8 bits, where in NNI its 12 bits. The VCI is the same in both interfaces 16 bits. So VC is identified by 24 bits in UNI and 28 bits in NNI.

ATM Layers
Physical Layer Like Ethernet and Wireless LANs, ATM Cells can be carried b y any physical layer carrier. It uses SONET and Other Physical technologies. ATM layer It provides routing, traffic management, switching, and multipl exing services. It processes outgoing traffic by accepting 48 byte segments fro m the AAL sub layers and transforming them into 53-byte cells by the ad dition of a 5- byte header.

Header Format
ATM uses two formats for this header, one for User to network interface cells and other for Network to Network interface cells. GFC(Generic Flow Control) :- 4-bit GFC Field provides flow control at the UNI level. ITU-T Determined that this level of Flow control is not necessary at the NNI level. VPI VCI PT(Payload Type) :- In the 3-bit PT Field, the First bit defines the payload as user data or managerial information. The last two bits Depends on the first bit. CLP(Cell Loss priority) :- 1-bit CLP field is provided for Congestion control. HEC(Header Error Correction) :- The HEC is a code computed for the first 4 bytes of the header. It is a CRC with the DIVISOR x8+x2+x+1 for Single Bit error

ATM LAN
ATM is mainly a wide-area network (WAN ATM); however, the technology can be adapted to local-area networks (ATM LANs). The high data rate of the technology has attracted the attention of designers who are looking for greater and greater speeds in LANs.
