ABSTRACT:
A system for connecting source nodes and destination nodes. The system includes an ATM network along which ATM cells travel. The system includes source nodes connected to the ATM network which produce ATM cells that travel along the ATM network. The system includes destination nodes connected to the ATM network which receive ATM cells from the ATM network. The system also includes a switching mechanism connected to the ATM network for directing an ATM cell from a first source node of the source nodes to a first destination node of the destination nodes. The switch mechanism has a mechanism for holding predetermined connection profiles between source nodes and destination nodes. The switch mechanism connects the first source node to the first destination node based on a desired connection profile from the holding mechanism after the first source node makes a request on the switch mechanism to be connected with the first destination node. A method for connecting source nodes and destination nodes. The method includes the steps of predetermining connection profiles between source nodes and destination nodes.
