Pat - thanks for the white paper links. I read through the Juniper stuff juniper.net Interesting reading. However, I did not see any mention of voice or video or similar time and delay sensitive traffic. They seem to be focused on sending data packets only. The premise of ATM is that a carrier can make more money sending all three (voice, video, and data) over one managed system than worrying about separate networks for all three types of data. Yes, there is the 'ATM tax' with ATM networks. But, you don't get something for nothing. The extra ATM management bits allow the extra flexibility and guaranteed (well, contractual..) QoS, which the slimmed down protocols do not provide.
