F Virtual Circuit Topology
Appendix C
Virtual Circuit Topology
ATM is a connection-oriented technology, meaning that it sets up virtual circuits over which end systems
communicate. The terminology for virtual circuits is as follows:
Virtual Channel Logical connections between ATM switches
Virtual Path A bundle of virtual channels
Virtual Circuit A series of virtual paths between circuit end points
Diagram 5 Virtual Circuit Topology
Think of a virtual path as a cable that contains a bundle of wires. The cable connects two points and wires
within the cable provide individual circuits between the two points. In an ATM cell header, a VPI (Virtual
Path Identifier) identifies a link formed by a virtual path; a VCI (Virtual Channel Identifier) identifies a
channel within a virtual path.
The VPI and VCI identify a virtual path, that is, termination points between ATM switches. A series of
virtual paths make up a virtual circuit.
Your service provider should supply you with VPI/VCI numbers.
