Access Network and Edge Node Systems for Next-Generation Computer Networks

摘要

Owing to the rapid spread of WWW technology, the number of home and business users on the Internet has increased dramatically. However, there are serious problems with the performance of conventional routers, and with the network architecture. We have proposed a network architecture that consists of a core network, access networks and edge nodes, route servers, and a management network for the next generation computer network. In this paper, we describe the key technologies of the access network equipments and the edge nodes, which play important roles in the GMN-CL.
