Web based ATM PVC management

This paper discusses the design of a public domain web based ATM PVC Management tool for the Dutch SURFnet research ATM network. The aim of this tool is to assists in the creation and deletion of PVCs through local and remote ATM network domains. The tool includes security mechanisms to restrict the access to these ATM domains, and provides a high level graphical user interface to hide the differences between the ATM switches from various vendors.
