METHOD FOR CONTROLLING PACKET-ORIENTED DATA FORWARDING VIA A COUPLING FIELD

摘要

In the context of making a cell-loss-sensitive connection between an originating subscriber device and a destination subscriber device via an ATM coupling field, a connection is set up only if the sum of the connection bandwidths of cell-loss-sensitive connections, executed via a logical point-to-point connection connecting the destination subscriber device with the ATM coupling field and in the process of being made, is less than or equal to a predeterminable limit value. All other connections are set up without checking.
