Nvatm is a video-conferencing tool that allows the multicast of video traffic on a Fore Systems ATM network. It is a derivative of Nv by Ron Frederick of Xerox Parc and interoperates seamlessly with its ascendant. A Sparc 20 with SunVideo 1.0 was able to kick out a 20 Megabit per second uncompressed video stream. This will really chew up all that pesky extra bandwidth that ATM provides. Nvatm has been compiled under the Solaris 2.3 operating system and release 2.3 of Fore Systems API to Fores equipment.
Operation requires no user intervention.
If an ATM connection can be made between two Nvatm processes then it will be created automatically. The text nvatm.txt available in the same directory as the binary should answer most questions. The author will be happy to entertain any questions regarding Nvatm. Contact David Aschkenasy . I am aware of Vince.
