Abstract:
The improved bandwidth provisioning solution of the present invention enables the provision of bandwidth on demand by dynamically establishing and terminating one or more dynamic virtual circuits (SVCs) (137) to supplement a subscriber's default broadband connection. The improved bandwidth provisioning solution includes a client-side application (107) residing on the subscriber's data processing system (105) and a connection-management application (142) residing on a proxy signaling server (140). The client-side application (107) transmits a subscriber's request for a bandwidth-on-demand session to the connection-management application (142), which communicates with an asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) edge device (120) using User Network Interface (UNI) signaling to initiate the one or more VCs (137). When the subscriber no longer desires the additional bandwidth, the supplemental VCs (137) may be terminated.
