In my opinion,
if ATM switches are connected to switches that is physically
near to themselves,
NHRP's shortcuts may be effective.
However, in an environment where ATM switches are connected
hierarchically and routers are located properly,
paths created by NHRP is almost identical to those by
classical IP routing except via routers.
If you want to use virtual LANs,
you can use IP mobility.
