Question on IP with ATM

  • From: "Mahesh V. Tripunitara" <tripunit@cs.purdue.edu>

There're 3 or 4 Fore ASX 200 switches that we have access to. We have
them connected "sequentially" using IISP. All hosts connected to each
switch are on the same IP subnet. The "last" of these switches is then
connected to a Cisco router, which has a wire going to another Fore
switch, an Asx 1000, which connects us to the internet backbone. Hosts
connected to the Asx 1000 are on a different IP subnet from the one for
the other switches.

What is the "best" way to bypass the router and connect the Asx 200
switches to the Asx 1000 directly? Should we run IP over ATM instead of
LANE in all the hosts? Is that the answer?

I tried to search the cell relay archive, but it kept returning a
timed-out error.

Thanks very much,
Mahesh.
