ABSTRACT:
Described is a method of providing an AAL2 end-to-end connection in an ATM transmission network using a first and a second AAL2 endpoint and at least an AAL2 switch. The method comprises the step of establishing an end-to-end connection on a concatenation of a first path between the first AAL2 endpoint and the at least one AAL2 switch with a second path between the at least one AAL2 switch and the second AAL2 endpoint. The selection of the first and second path is performed by using a mapping scheme which is valid at least between the first AAL2 endpoint and the at least one AAL2 switch and between the at least one AAL2 switch and the second AAL2 endpoint. The mapping scheme is configured so as to ensure that the first AAL2 endpoint can control the selection of certain paths.
