Examine the usage of the mechanism of ATM to implement the new features offered by IPv6

ATM networks are point to point networks that offer no connectionless broadcast or multicast capabilities on the ATM datalink. Some mechanism are needed on top of the ATM datalink to handle those protocols or function, such as IPv6, which rely on connectionless multicast capabilities. This dissertat...
