ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for selecting improved routing paths in an emulated LAN over an ATM network is disclosed. Such an apparatus and method are realized by having an editor associated with a distributed LAN emulation server selectively modify Routing Information Protocol (RIP) update messages according to information retrieved from an associated routing table. More particularly, the editor modifies RIP update messages so that they will more accurately reflect the position of the network router that broadcast the RIP update message, relative to the position of a network router associated with the distributed LAN emulation server, with respect to any given destination network.
