Abstract
By using a LAN emulation in an ATM environment, end systems such as workstations etc. can connect to the ATM network while software applications interact as if they are attached to a traditional LAN. The invention is a simple technique for emulating a LAN on an ATM network. According to the invention, each end system is identified by hub and port identifiers which represent a hub and a port of the hub to which the end system is connected. By labelling each ATM cell, and proper label translation at hubs, a LAN can be emulated without using network servers which would introduce cumbersome extra procedures.
