Abstract
The invention relates to a communication system which operates in the asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) and which comprises several nodes which form a network and are partly coupled to one another and to terminals, and which each comprise a switch and a control software at least for controlling the relevant coupling field and for the signaling. At least one object of the control software contains detection points in certain states. An object for event handling of the control software is provided for further processing when a detection point is reached. The object for event handling receives data via a special channel from at least one terminal or from another node.
