摘要
This is the Inverse Multiplexing for ATM (IMA) specification, the purpose of which is to provide inverse
multiplexing of an ATM cell stream over multiple physical links and to retrieve the original stream at the
far-end from these physical links. The multiplexing of the ATM cell stream is performed on a cell by cell
basis across the multiple physical links.
This specification is offered for private and public User-to-Network Interfaces (UNIs), Network-to-Network
Interfaces (NNIs) and Broadband Inter-Carrier Interfaces (BICIs). It defines a new sublayer
located between the Physical Layer Interface Specific Transmission Convergence (TC) sublayer and the
ATM layer: the IMA sublayer. This specification also defines modifications to the Interface Specific TC
sublayer on which the IMA sublayer is implemented. It also defines the IMA Management Information
Base (MIB) objects.
This specification does not deal with ATM layer functions such as, UNI/NNI/BICI implementation
requirements for signaling, traffic management, and OAM.
