Abstract
A method for supporting end to end VC oriented service between mobile hosts. Included are protocols designed for a micro-cellular wireless environment in which mobile hosts make frequent transitions between cells. A VC rerouting procedure minimizes the effect of frequent hand-offs by extending routes and triggering a route rebuild only when performance as seen by an application degrades below a certain level. VC establishment and rerouting protocols assume the existence of separate signaling protocols for the wired and the wireless network, respectively. This minimizes the changes required to the signaling infrastructure used in the wired network while allowing the signaling in the wireless network to be customized for the unique requirements of that particular environment.
