ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for processing multiple cell streams of differing service categories at a queuing point in an ATM network. The apparatus includes two or more cell processors for monitoring bi-directional ABR traffic at each queuing point in order to efficiently calculate and mark explicit rate values and/or congestion information in resource management cells in either VSVD or non-VSVD ABR traffic.
