METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETERMINING AAL TYPE

摘要

A system, method and computer program product are provided for copying data from an asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) connection table (116). In use, an ATM connection table (116) on an ATM network (106) is monitored. During such monitoring, it is determined whether entries of the ATM connection table (116) are active. If the entries are active, associated data is periodically transferred from the active entries of the ATM connection table to memory (202). Identifiers associated with the data are utilized for identification purposes. The transferred data in the memory (202) may then be subsequently utilized with an application program. Another system, method and computer program product are provided for determining a type of ATM adaptation layer (AAL) associated with an ATM connection for analysis purposes.
