NTP 297-8103-903

Interior 

Denotes that an item (e.g., link, node, or reachable address) is inside of a PNNI 
routing domain. 

Internal Reachable Address 

An address of a destination that is directly attached to the logical node advertising 
the address. 

IOP 

Interoperability: The ability of equipment from different manufacturers (or 
different implementations) to operate together. 

IP 

Internet Protocol: Originally developed by the Department of Defense to support 
interworking of dissimilar computers across a network. This protocol works in 
conjunction with TCP and is usually identified as TCP/IP. A connectionless 
protocol that operates at the network layer (layer 3) of the OSI model. 

IPOA

IP Over ATM

IPX 

Novell Internetwork Packet Exchange: A built-in networking protocol for Novell 
Netware. It was derived from the Xerox Network System protocol and operates at 
the network layer of the OSI protocol model. 

IS 

Intermediate System: A system that provides forwarding functions or relaying 
functions or both for a specific ATM connection. OAM cells may be generated and 
received. 

ISDN

Integrated Services Digital Network: A switched network providing end-to-end 
digital connections where voice, data, video and image services are provided over 
the same transmission facilities. ISDN comes today in two basic flavors-BRI, 
which is 144,000 bits per second and design for the desk top, and PRI which is 
1,544,000 bits per second and design for telephone switches, computer telephony 
and voice processing systems.Neither ISDN BRI or ISPN PRI is a standard service, 
though there are several "standard" configurations.ISDN BRI is a wonderful 
service in your home or office because it can give you video conferencing, and 
ultrafast data communications.But it is not an easy service to get up and running.
