networks. LANE allows users to interoperate with ATM or traditional LAN
based servers over ATM for higher performance and functionality.

ATM Access Module Features

The following list summarizes the ATM access module features. These features are
described in more detail in this guide.

Conforms to ATM Forum Standards

Avaya M770 Frame Switch Domains

The Avaya M770 supports two Frame Switches, named DomainXs: DomainXL (Left
DomainX) spans slots 1-7, and DomainXR (Right DomainX) spans slots 8-14. Each
DomainX supports up to 6 Gbytes of bandwidth. You can insert the M32-100T into
either DomainX, provided you don't exceed the maximum of 100 Domain Resource
Units (DRUs) per DomainX. Each module uses a certain number of DRUs; the
M32-100T uses 12 DRUs.

M-ACC Module Architecture

The M-ACC module consists of separate X-Switch and ATM entities. The X-switch
CPU connects the M-ACC module to the Avaya M770 X-Domain. The ATM CPU
performs all ATM signalling. Each entity has it’s own embedded software.
