S.C. Farkouh · IEEE Communications Magazine · 1993
Some of the asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) virtual path connection (VPC) and virtual channel connection (VCC) performance, fault, and traffic management functions that are currently being addressed in CCITT and T1 standards committees as well as in the ATM forum are presented. The functions include ATM VP/VC connection management, ATM layer operation flows, VP/VC connection performance monitoring, VP/VC connection failure reporting, VP/VC continuity checking, and VP/VC connection operations and maintenance (OAM) cell loopback testing.>
