<t>
   This document is a companion to the ION working group&apos;s architecture
   document, &quot;IPv6 over Non Broadcast Multiple Access (NBMA) networks&quot;.
   It provides specific details on how to apply the IPv6 over NBMA
   architecture to ATM networks. This architecture allows conventional
   host-side operation of the IPv6 Neighbor Discovery protocol, while
   also supporting the establishment of &apos;shortcut&apos; ATM forwarding paths
   (when using SVCs).  Operation over administratively configured Point
   to Point PVCs is also supported.
