This memo describes a new internetworking architecture which makes
better use of the property of ATM.  IP datagrams are transferred
along hop-by-hop path via routers, but datagram assembly/disassembly
and IP header processing are not necessarily carried out at
individual routers in the proposed architecture. A concept of "Cell
Switch Router (CSR)" is introduced as a new internetworking
equipment, which has ATM cell switching capabilities in addition to
conventional IP datagram forwarding.  Proposed architecture can
provide applications with high-throughput and low-latency ATM pipes
while retaining current router-based internetworking concept.  It
also provides applications with specific QoS/bandwidth by
cooperating with internetworking level resource reservation protocols
such as RSVP.

This memo provides information for the Internet community.  This memo
does not specify an Internet standard of any kind.  Distribution of
this memo is unlimited.
