The function of the ATM layer is to:
A) handle the PVC and SVC logical circuit connections
B)perform error checking on the header information to ensure that the layer 2 overhead has not been corrupted
C) be responsible for moving information between the adaptation layer and the physical layer
D) all of the above

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) layer is responsible for handling both Permanent Virtual Circuits (PVCs) and Switched Virtual Circuits (SVCs), performing error checking on header information to ensure integrity, and facilitating the movement of information between the adaptation layer and the physical layer. Therefore, all the options provided (A, B, and C) are functions of the ATM layer.
