Abstract: A system, method and computer program product are provided for copying data from an asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) connection table. In use, an ATM connection table on an ATM network is monitored. During such monitoring, it is determined whether entries of the ATM connection table are active. If the entries are active, associated data is periodically transferred from the active entries of the ATM connection table to memory. Identifiers associated with the data are utilized for identification purposes. The transferred data in the memory may then be subsequently utilized with an application program.

Abstract: A system and method for identifying and analyzing active channels in an asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) network. The system and method open a plurality of ATM network channels during a time period; automatically monitor each of the plurality of open channels to identify any active channels from among the open channels; and automatically identify the type of traffic transmitted on the open channels. By systematically identifying the active channels in the ATM network, the ATM network analysis device can further analyze the traffic on the active channels. The present invention includes at least three functions: network data detection and capture, active channel determination, and ATM Application Layer (AAL) service type categorization. A network data detector and identifier (DDI) performs the functions of network data detection and capture. The DDI connects to an ATM network and captures, copies, and repeats cells transmitted on the network and copies cells of interest to the DDI for further analysis.

Abstract: A system and method for identifying and analyzing active channels in an asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) network. The system and method monitor an ATM network signal channel to identify setup, connect, and release messages which permit identification of active switched virtual circuits and the service type used for that active virtual circuit's traffic. The system and method also possess the simultaneous ability to open a plurality of ATM network channels during a time period; to automatically monitor each of the plurality of open channels to identify any active channels from among the open channels; and to automatically identify the type of traffic transmitted on the open channels. By systematically identifying the active channels in the ATM network, the ATM network analysis device can further analyze the traffic on the active channels.

Abstract: A kit comprised of an elongated threaded bolt having two end portions and an intermediate threaded portion therebetween. The two end portions have Allen wrench drives formed therein. The device includes a pair of removable cap heads each having an inner surface and an outer surface. The inner surface has an internally threaded aperture formed therein. The internally threaded aperture is adapted for removable coupling with the two end portions of the elongated threaded bolt. The inner surface of the removable cap head has a circular groove formed therein surrounding the internally threaded aperture thereof for placement of an O-ring therein. The outer surface of the removable cap head has an Allen wrench drive formed therein.
