7.3 ATM Addressing
You specify the destination address with the MSMC API’s msmSetConnect()
function. You fill in an instance of the MsmConnect structure before calling
msmSetConnect(). This structure contains an destTiAddr field, which holds a
string. This field determines the destination address to which the server delivers
data.
7.3.1 MPEG over AAL5
When configured for MPEG over AAL5, the server delivers video data to a specified
ATM virtual circuit over a specified server ATM port. Therefore, the data endpoint
address is described by a ATM virtual circuit and a server ATM port.
Note – The server supports only SunATM devices, that is, devices with names of the
form ba<num>.
The address is a string of the following format:
The components of this address are as follows:
■ The ba<ATM portnum> is the server’s ATM interface, through which multimedia
data will pass.
■ The <ATM vcnum> specifies the ATM circuit that has been established to deliver
the multimedia data through the ATM network to the client.
For example, the address port=sa0,vc=301 specifies that data be delivered via the
server’s ATM device sa0 to virtual circuit 301.
7.3.2 MPEG-2 over Classical IP over AAL5
When configured for MPEG over Classical IP over AAL5, the server delivers video
data to a specified IP hostname and UDP port number.
