This memo describes a new internetworking architecture which makes better 
use of the property of ATM.  IP datagrams are transferred along hop-by-hop 
path via routers, but datagram assembly/disassembly and IP header 
processing are not necessarily carried out at individual routers in the 
proposed architecture.  A concept of "Cell Switch Router (CSR)" is 
introduced as a new internetworking equipment, which has ATM cell switching
capabilities in addition to conventional IP datagram forwarding.  Proposed 
architecture can provide applications with high-throughput and low-latency 
ATM pipes while retaining current router-based internetworking concept.  It
also provides applications with specific QoS/bandwidth by cooperating with 
internetworking level resource reservation protocols such as RSVP.

Send a message to:  [e-mail]. In the body type: 
     "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-rfced-info-katsube-00.txt".
							
NOTE: The mail server at ds.internic.net can return the document in
      MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
      feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
      command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
      a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
      exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
      "multipart" MIME messages (i.e., documents which have been split
      up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
      how to manipulate these messages.
							
							

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader 
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version
of the Internet-Draft.
