User Plane Connection

Signaling operates in the control plane (doing control-type functions such as setting up the
connection). After signaling is finished, it drops out of the way and the established connection
is used to move data. This moving of payload data is done in the user plane. Control and user
planes are parts of the conceptual model of ATM.

Variable Bit Rate

An ATM Forum defined service category supporting variable bit rate data traffic with average
and peak traffic parameters.
