Understanding and Using MSS Release 1.1 and 2.0

This redbook will help you to understand and use the functions offered
by MSS Server Releases 1.1 and 2.0. Proper understanding of the
technology and following the configuration examples given in this
publication will be helpful in designing and building an ATM network
using IBM's Multiprotocol Switching Services.

An overview of the functions provided by MSS Server Release 1.1 and a
short description of each of the new functions is included.

With MSS R2.0 new functions in addition to the new hardware are
delivered. The major functions of MSS R2.0 are RouteSwitching, APPN
routing, IP multicast over ATM, RFC 1577+ support, duplicate MAC
address in SR-TB networks. These and other new functions are detailed
in this redbook.

Finally, due to its versatility, getting started with the MSS Server
can sometimes create difficulties. Therefore, a number of
configuration examples are provided. They can also be downloaded from the
Internet at ftp://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/SG242115. A
description is included on how to activate and verify each of the
configurations.

We recommend that you read this publication in conjunction with Understanding and
