Abstract
In a method of transmitting an IP packet between a source and a destination through an ATM network which has a node formed by an ATM switch and a packet router, a reception packet or cell is transmitted to the node on an unused or undefined VC and is sent to the packet router in the node. In the packet router, an output port is selected by the use of the unused VC to establish a switched virtual channel in the ATM switch and to transfer each packet through the switched virtual channel after the switched virtual channel is established, as long as the reception packet is sent on the same VCI. Neither signaling nor protocol is needed between the nodes.
