ABSTRACT:
A method for sub-port multicasting in an Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) switching system, including inserting multicast fan-out port information for sub-ports of each of a plurality of switch ports into a multicast cell at an ingress port card, transmitting the multicast cell to an egress port card, reading the multicast fan-out port information from the multicast cell at the egress port card, and performing multicasting for the sub-ports corresponding to the multicast fan-out port information.
