Internetworking connectionless and connection oriented networks.

Internetworking connectionless and connection oriented networks.

The use of connection-oriented (CO) networks for the transport of IP traffic is seen to have value to both users and service providers. Given the expectation that most endpoint-generated traffic will be in the form of connectionless (CL) IP datagrams, we address the problem of how to internetwork a...
