Are we on the verge of a step-change in the quality of networking, a change that will put what we've come to expect from the likes of Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM), Frame Relay and all-IP to shame?
But what do they offer above and beyond infrastructure relying on our old friends Frame Relay and ATM? But IP VPNs have to provide something more than VPNs based on Frame Relay or ATM. In other scenarios, Frame and ATM can be equally as useful, yet...

Out go ATM, Frame Relay and leased lines. At the top of the technologies labelled as 'in decline' is Frame Relay, which will generate 26 per cent less revenue than in the earlier 12-month period. Cambridge-based Analysys has identified virtual...
Global network operators such as AT&T, BT/Infonet, C&W, Equant, MCI, NTT and Sprint - all regularly in the news with IP VPN contract wins - will see strong demand as organisations typically migrate their private networks from Frame Relay and ATM.
