Abstract
Network interconnection apparatus and method capable of efficiently guaranteeing optimum QoS suited to the status of actual traffic and network, whereby high-performance network interconnection is achieved without entailing lost calls. Routing information managing means manages routing information of an ATM network, and statistical information managing means manages statistical information on the traffic of a LAN. QoS setting means sets QoS which the ATM network ought to guarantee, based on the statistical information, and QoS guarantee determining means determines based on the routing information whether or not the set QoS can be guaranteed. If it is judged that the QoS cannot be guaranteed, QoS adjusting means adjusts the QoS so that the QoS can be guaranteed. Call connection control means connects call according to the QoS which can be guaranteed.
