摘要:
An ATM switching apparatus applicable to a short cell comprises an ATM-SW outputting a cell from an output path corresponding to a identifier of the cell, an interface unit, a demultiplexer, and a multiplexer connected to the ATM-SW. The interface unit sets, when a cell storing a plurality of short cells are inputted, the identifier of the cell so that the cell is transmitted from ATM-SW to the demultiplexer, and outputts the cell toward the ATM-SW. The demultiplexer receives the cell outputted from the interface unit through the ATM-SW, produces a plurality of partial fill cells, and outputs the partial fill cells, while setting an identifier of each partial fill cell so that the partial fill is outputted to the multiplexer. The multiplexier receives a plurality of the partial fill cells outputted from the demultiplexer through the ATM-SW, produces a cell storing a plurality of the short cells in accordance with the identifiers of the partial fill cells, and outputs the cell to the ATM-SW.

The object of the present invention is accomodating local connectionless information (data that is immediately transferred without establishing a path to a receive side), such as LAN data in a local area network, by an asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) network using a connection-oriented communication system (which makes data transfers after verifying that a path to the receive side has been established), thereby performing efficient, fast routing of connectionless information. A connectionless communication system of the present invention is equipped with connectionless information cell assembly/deassembly means for bi-directional conversion between variable-length connectionless information and fixed-length connectionless cells, routing control means for analyzing a destination address of information in connectionless cells and controlling the routing of the connectionless cells; and an ATM network for connecting the connectionless information cell assembly/deassembly means and the routing control means by a permanent virtual channel serving as a fixed path and connecting the routing control means together by a virtual channel serving as a semi-fixed path, whereby connectionless information is segmented into connectionless cells and the connectionless information is exchanged within the ATM network in connectionless cell units.

The quality classes of arriving short cells and the ATM virtual connections to be multiplexed are identified based on the CIDs of those short cells. Those short cells are written into FIFO memories corresponding to the ATM virtual connections and quality classes. A VC specification control section specifies one ATM virtual connection for each ATM cell sending timing. At this time, a sequence specification control section specifies one or more quality classes in sequence. A readout control section reads one or more short cells out from the FIFO memory in accordance with the specified ATM virtual connection and quality class, stores them in one ATM cell and sends the ATM cell to the ATM virtual connection specified by the VC specification control section.

An Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) cell error processing system includes a plurality of error detectors for respectively detecting predetermined cell errors and for respectively generating decision signals and an error editing unit which is operatively coupled to the error detector and determines, based on the decision signals, whether or not a cell related to the decision signals should be discarded. A buffer, which is coupled to at least one of the error detectors, temporarily stores the cell. An error cell discarding unit, which is coupled to the error editing unit and the buffer, discards the cell from the buffer when the error editing unit determines that the cell should be discarded and relays the cell when the error editing unit determines that the cell should not be discarded.

A network system including a mobile node, a correspondent node for transmitting/receiving a data packet to/from the mobile node, a first router to which the mobile node is connected at a visited domain and a second router to which the mobile node is connected at a moving destination to which the mobile node moves from the first router. The second router including a location registration message generating unit for generating a location registration message of the mobile node and transmitting the location registration message. The first router including a binding cache, a movement managing unit for receiving the location registration message and storing into the binding cache address information from before and after the mobile node moves and an encapsulating unit for receiving the data packet, encapsulating the data packet concerned, and creating and transmitting a data packet containing as a transmission destination the address information after the change.

In a load balancer preserving a function of server consistency maintenance during communications even if a terminal is a mobile terminal, identifying information specific to a mobile IP terminal is extracted from an arrival packet, and a destination server to be connected is determined based on the identifying information. Also, a home agent or a terminal is requested to notify a change of the care-of address when the care-of address of the terminal has changed, and a destination server to be connected is determined by regarding the notified care-of address as identifying information.

The present invention discloses a load decentralization method for decentralizing load centralized to a MAP of a hierarchical domain in a network where packets destined to mobile nodes in the network are transmitted to the mobile nodes via the MAP, in which the MAP includes a table part for managing a corresponding relation of home addresses and Care-of-Addresses of the mobile nodes in the hierarchical domain. The method includes the steps of providing a same function as the MAP to at least a portion of routers situated in the hierarchical domain of the MAP, moving one of the elements in the table part to the portion of the routers when a congestion of the MAP is detected, and actuating the portion of the routers to operate as a substitute of the MAP.

A first header converting section outputs, when partial fill cells are inputted to the first header converting section the partial fill cells, while converting a VPI of each of the partial fill cells into a value that is a unit of a multiplexing process at a short cell multiplexing section and converting a VCI of each of the partial fill cells into a value to be a CID which is to be stored in a short cell at the short cell multiplexing section. The short cell multiplexing section receives a plurality of the partial fill cells from the first header converting section to multiplex a plurality of the short cells within the partial fill cells for every VPI of the partial fill cells, and produces an AAL Type 2 cell in which the VCIs of the partial fill cells are stored as CIDs and the VPIs of the partial fill cells are stored as VCIs. A second header converting section receives the AAL Type 2 cell from the short cell multiplexing section and outputs the AAL Type 2 cell while converting the VPI/VCI of the AAL Type 2 cell into given values.

A storage unit includes an alarm state/timer table, an alarm state table, an alarm state OR-representation table, an alarm state change OR-representation table, an alarm state latch circuit, and a statistical information memory. A collection unit extracts the identifier and data from a cell that passes through a switching unit. An update unit updates associated data in the storage unit. A readout unit reads the updated data and sends it to a call processing processor. An address generation section selectively generates the address for data needing to be updated. An adjustment section forces the readout unit to wait until a cell slot arrives in which no data is updated.
