TCP/IP Protocol Suite 18

Only the last cell carries the 8-byte trailer added to the IP datagram.

Padding can be added only to the last cell or the last two cells.

Note:Note:

The value of the PT field is 000 in all cells carrying an IP datagram

fragment except for the last cell; the value is 001 in the last cell.

23.5 LOGICAL IP SUBNET (LIS)

An ATM network can be divided into logical (not physical) subnetworks. An ATM network can be divided into logical (not physical) subnetworks. This facilitates the operation of ATMARP and other protocols (such as This facilitates the operation of ATMARP and other protocols (such as IGMP) that need to simulate broadcasting on an ATM network.IGMP) that need to simulate broadcasting on an ATM network.

LIS allows an ATM network to be divided into several logical subnets. To

use ATMARP, we need a separate server for each subnet.
