ABSTRACT:
An enhanced cells-in-frames (CIF) network system for connecting a local-area-network (LAN) to an ATM network consists of CIF end-stations and an enhanced CIF attachment-device attached to a LAN segment. The enhanced CIF attachment-device in addition to performing its conventional functions, recognizes connection requests between local CIF end-stations and sets up short-cut forwarding between such end stations allowing them to transfer CIF frames directly over the Ethernet. In a conventional system such local traffic would broken up into a plurality of cells and sent over an ATM network.
