This paper addresses the topic of signalling and connectionless data transfer virtual channels in ATM at the UNI. It recapitulates on the access signalling support in narrowband ISDN, as a representative of an STM network and the predecessor of the coming broadband ISDN. Also, the influence of the customer premises network architecture is taken into account. From there, it is investigated in which ways these principles can be extended, into a general access infrastructure and access configuration management for signalling and connectionless services in the ATM‐based broadband ISDN. Some possible implications for the internal architecture of the CPN and the network are discussed. This brings some insight into the restrictions which standardization of these principles at the UNI may bring along for the architecture.
