Cisco LightStream 10101


The Cisco LightStream 1010 offers the sophistication and depth of functionality required for true advanced traffic management (ATM) production. ATM mechanisms support current, bursty, best-effort traffic, while also delivering the QoS guarantees required for applications of the future. Available bit rate (ABR) congestion control support allows the LightStream 1010 to slow traffic sources before congestion becomes excessive, whereas support for the ATM Forum PNNI protocols allows networks of LightStream 1010s to scale to hundreds of nodes while still delivering interoperable, QoS-based routing. Value-added capabilities allow for ATM access lists and load sharing across redundant links. All this sophistication is hidden, however, by the true standards-based, plug-and-play capabilities of the LightStream 1010, and advanced management functions allow for unprecedented levels of network visibility and control.
